Une verite de La Palisse
... ou nous avons arrete pour diner (ou dejeuner, comme dises les francais), mais pour nous c'etait le repas du midi. Ironiquement, le resto se nomait : "Aux verites" (Aux verites, a Lapalisse, la comprenez-vous? Une verite de la palisse?). Nous avons eu droit a un repas 4 services pour 12 euros, le vin inclus!

Linda wants to home school her children but they are going to try their eldest Clementine ...

The sunflower fields this time have me thinking about beastly battering sunflowers, nasty nasturtiums and fun home cine films made by my Grandad and I can picture him looking towards the camera with a well made up black eye!
As we drive over the La Loire in a very picturesque town called La-Chante-sur-loire we are ...
