One of the great things about French village life is the regular get togethers throughout the year. Last night, eleven of us (including our neighbours the Lloyds - above but with Katie missing) went out for what we call 'the sausage evening'. They call it La Journee Estivale. The whole village is invited for aperos, a meal and dancing in the cool night air. Previous events involved cooking sausages over an open fire but this time it was more upmarket. For the princely sum of 15 euros, a wide range of 20 different salads were offered, in addition to cheese and coffee. One of our neighbours, Roger, a retired chef prepared it all and jolly good it was too.
