We have had my Gran and two old
family friends staying with us last night and today. The friends are a husband and wife
and the woman used to be my mother's
au pair, about 40 years ago. She is French and she is an extremely lively woman. Most of the time everyone talks in
French which is a bit a of a challenge, but is probably good for me.
Her husband doesn't say much but he does come out with some classic lines. My dad had got some nice wine out of the cellar and had told them all about it.
He was about to pour some into Madamme Lenez's glass when he exclaimed,
No! It is my policy that when we have the good vines only the men drink.
He seems such a quiet man but he does come out with lines like that.
I extensively updated and rewrote my reformation write up. I also noticed that freshmint is getting better fast having been a target for my advice recently.
