Sunday opening

In line with the French (or so I thought), since coming to France, I have never visited a supermarket on Sunday. Well yesterday, Easter Sunday, we needed something in a hurry and knowing that our local Carrefour Market is normally open on Sunday morning I popped out.

I can't say that I was too optimistic because when all was said and done it was Easter Sunday, but was I in for a surprise. The place was heaving, packed. The busiest I have seen since it's opening day.

So much for all the rubbish about keeping Sunday special.
