A Lucky Escape

At last, the biting high winds of the last few days have calmed a bit. The sky is blue and the Association website after numerous trials and tribulations is almost good to go. We were invited for lunch by Nicole, an association member but before that we called in at Carmen's with a cake I'd made to say "thank you" for a rabbit (a dead one) that she'd given us. Her husband who is a hunter offered us an apéritif and a pheasant still with its feathers on. Fortunately, Carman took pity on us and said that she'd pluck it. Nicole gave us, Danielle et Maggie a good lunch, after which Maggie and I went to see Trudi who is knitting things for us to sell in aid of the Téléthon in December. It gets more like the WI everyday though you'll have a long wait for a calendar, if that's what you're thinking.
