Le marin d' eau douce commence

 Tonight, the re-opening of the Creperie with an apero at the new gaff, ex- Plan B - next to Le Musee des Dinosaures. Virus permitting. Macron is closing the schools from Monday so here's hoping we are safe till them :) Unaware of any cases in Esperaza, which doesn't mean they ain't there - merely un-diagnosed, unreported.

Also unreported; yesterdays dawn, which I post here for want of anything else - taken while seeing Paddy and Louis off. They are safely in Amsterdam BTW.

So, farewell...

Alain and Veronique are leaving the Relais Occitan after 25 years. They held a farewell apero last night - Alain clearly sadened, Veronique saying 25 years is enough and no, she won't be visiting.

(Bet she does though)

 Afterwards went to St Gobains for the Friday night moules - and met Antonia and Steve, newcomers and a very welcome addition to our subversive band :)
