Sorry Ben, but it's all just a bit too late


Sorry Ben, but this is just a bit too late. Why has it taken you so long to say something? Why aren't you addressing all the poor unfortunates that have been abused? Why not say sorry? The list goes on.
And, to top it all, you could at least have congratulated Alexandra Rosenfeld a bonny lass from just down the road (Saint-Thibery), who is the current Miss Languedoc, the current Miss France and who has just been crowned Miss Europe. This young, blond, 19 years old beauty wants to travel the world, do good things for orphaned children and the children who have been abused by your priests. Or at least I think that's what she said in her tearful victory speech. Keep up!

This quote by Roger Law made me laugh, “I go to the theatre to be entertained. I don't want to see rape, sodomy, and drug addiction. I can get all that at home.”

Jan is slowly losing the ability to cook. H&E invited us for lunch, so we all headed for Le Fourneau de Clelia in Aigremomt. It's a 31 euros menu and always our restaurant of choice, especially if someone else is paying. I started with a terrine de foie gras with a chestnut velouté on the side, garnished with girolles mushrooms. For the main course we all had a filet mignon de porc with a honey based sauce and girolles and whole chestnuts on the side. Pudding was huge, and delicious. All this washed down with a Viognier 2005 from Domaine de Grand Chemin and a Mas Foulaquier Les Calades 2000. Highly recommended. I was stuffed for the rest of the day.
