Iconoclasm in Rennes, dinner in Esperaza

 Yuri walked to Rennes le chateau to check out the damage and here is the extent of it - rather shockingly, the aggressor took a hatchet to the Mary Magdalene on the altar, knocking through the plasterwork - and here is the decapitated demon with an slight explanation from the authorities.

According to the local paper, the attack was made to highlight the bombing of Syria. 

On a lighter note, Richard and Eva took me to TyRex last night - its open all the days for lunch and dinner except Wednesday, under new management, exactly the same menu and jolly good fun, as ever. And look who we found trying to dine quietly with Eric :) 

Here is Elaine, living in a gite whilst waiting for the work to be finished on her new house in Montazel (next door to Mary)She was in excellent form.

Yuri leaves today but back soon, Bob. Margo and Theo arrive tomorrow...
