Soirée Rock and Roll

This evening the village held its first Soirée Rock 'n' Roll. We (fifteen of us, cos we do everything mob handed) arrived at 18.00 to watch an Abrivado Bandido followed by aperos, a meal of macaronnade and all the bits and then a live band.

I didn't think the macaronnade would be very good but it was excellent. A pasta dish, which was cooked from scratch in huge paella pans and turned with a shovel, which I'm told originated in nearby Sete which is tomato based and includes sausage. The event was organised by Laurent (on the left, 15 pictures down and was cooked by him and his sidekick on his right) and the whole thing cost the princely sum of 8 euros.

It was dark (and you were pissed - Ed) so there are no pictures of the dancing to embarrass anybody with. Shame, because there was a lot to be embarrassed about!

The pictures tell the story.
