This strange man appeared in the field near the bus stop, to announce our weekend of "Cadrieu en Fête". It wasn't till I got up close that I noticed the fire engine red socks he was sporting. With 2 events last weekend, I only made it to the one Saturday evening. I noticed we had professionally done posters this year, but the best was the go-cups...another nice souvenir of here for friends and family-not to mention sturdy plastic for drinks working in the barn, cutting the grass or out on the terrace. I managed a collection of cups, and then went over to see if I could just buy them empty, et voila-I now have a stash of 20 Cadrieu go cups.
When the village young people came by Sunday afternoon, they were surprised when I told them that I wouldn't make the dinner that night. Two nights in a row seems to be too much for me these days! A "sieste" was suggested, but I told them that even a sieste wouldn't do me any good at this point!
Maybe next year!
