Why Rue Ellie Sermet is closed-


and why traffic is directed past the Maison de Retrait. 





 Large and dramatic fire happened while I was reposing with badback, so I missed it all - also, being next door to the fire station, there were no sirens-

cause of fire; squatters.


So they said in the market anyway.


Makes sense. The place has been empty for 20-plus years so no electricity nor chimney fires.


Weather here is overcast but made much better for the presence of a great many martins and a few swifts. All early but most welcome. Plus the mates who were out - and Eddie, who popped in for tea.



Our home is now flanked by burnt-out buildings. Sinister.
