The weather this week has been up and down. Warm and sunny as well as a chilly wind with light showers. On the (non) social front I've beeen on the treadmill, spent time on the computer and watching tv. Thanks to Maureen, I also watched the film "Can you ever forgive me?" The title comes from a Dorothy Parker quote and is called "a real life caper" by the Guardian reviewer.

Of course there was time devoted to the association; a morning at the Language Exchange (25th) andSome of us will be
in medieval costume, soliciting donations for the books to go toward
the Pipe Band visit, handing out roses and running a small bar along with cakes
and savouries to eat.an afternoon (23rd) sorting books for Sunday's fête de Sant Jordi (St George's Day) when it's traditional to give books and roses.
I did have some real social interaction, too. Tea at Jacques, coffee at the bar with Ann and Lynn and went twice to the restaurant for lunch. On Wednesday (24th) with Kelvin and Irene, here on holiday from the UK and then on Thursday (25th) with Nicole. Thursday was a bit of a challenge. Even though lunch left me feeling sleepy, I managed to prepare a main course for the next day's dinner. Then I tidied up and got ready for les anglaises and an at - home apérobio. We'd decided on trying a couscous from the new take away on the Main Street.
All agreed that it
was a good alternative to the bar where latterly we’ve left feeling ripped off.
And an apéro first on the patio before going in to eat was just the thing.
Weather:
16-25°, changeable
