Sunday and Monday have been miserable and Christian was at the GP again, this time for an inflammed little toe.Surprise, surprise, he was told to lose weight and walk more. No comment!
I think Christian needs to ge his hearing tested as well as he did more than justice to the meal we had today. As the Mayor had to be elsewhere, he asked Christian to stand in for him at a local village fête in honour of their patron saint, St Vincent (patron saint of wine growers, by the way), Sardane, an apéritif for all and sundry and a meal. I got to go too. Mass first (gave that a miss), sale of bread that has been blessed, the Mayor's New Year Wishes. The weather was sunny and it was a pleasure to be outside and not infront of the computer as I have been recently.
The meal was substantial: charcuterie and roast red peppers, stuffed squid and king prawns, wild boar and white beans, chicken and potatoes, dessert and coffee all washed down with bottles of wine. Being part of the official group, we got to sit at the top table with several Mayors, the local MP, a Regional Councillor and wit for it ... the Archbishop. I must remember to tell my Mum who will be well impressed!
