The Law is for Everyone

The Captain last night at le Chapaire, where Pete and Clare took us for dinner after apero at Toutla...

To say its the only place in town to eat is not a misnomer. Le Healthy still not reopened though threatening weekly so to do; Kevin closed the Creperie for the winter about a month ago; Le Ponts lunches wont be available till the end of Jan, since the chef has had a knee op.

A merry crowd there including Ria, our new neighbour with her sister Crystall. (They have bought Jutta/Pete/Savs old house) Welcome to the street :)

Interesting experience at the police station yesterday. I trotted in with a note that someone had left, unsigned, on Bobs windscreen. Bob parks legally on the disabled parking space opposite our impasse and the note said he could not use it continually, which was not what we'd understood - hence me seeking clarification. The policeperson took the note, crumpled it up and threw it in the bin!! with a deal of passion. He repeatedly tapped his shoulder where his ID is sewn, saying it was up to no-one but him to say who could park where. Then he took the note out of the dust bin,  uncrumpled it and said he'd talk to the writer. The law is for everyone, I was to tell Bob. He knows Bob, knows where he lives, knows his malady (MS) and was jolly clear about his rights. Most edifying.
