For my money, Sarkozy has made a very impressive start with his ministerial appointments. At long last there is a minister of North African origin and other senior appointments come from a wide political base. This is one clever man and he has hit the ground running. At long last France has a dynamic and forward thinking leader.

Not too far from the political theme, it's our fourth annual Festival du Clown this weekend. Clown events are programmed to take place all over the village. It should be fun, especially for the kids.
