Ste Désiré
Another public holiday here in France, and there's to be another next Monday too.
Jon has finally managed to get some of the rubbish burned from the tree cutting and scrub clearing sessions he has been busy at. Meanwhile I was being very boring and doing the housework.
We have crossed a few items off this weeks' list but with the holiday today all public offices were closed - usually French people will 'bridge' by taking tomorrow off as well, so everywhere will be understaffed. It makes a nice long weekend for people over here but frustrating if you want to get anything done.
We've been watching the BBC Young Musician of the Year this week. Whatever happened to that? The format this year is appalling. We don't want to know how these kids have got to know each other and whether or not they are chatting on Facebook or MySpace - we want to know wether they can play their instruments and how well. Apparently we can see their full performances for the semi-finals on the internet - but setting up a decent sound quality isn't easy.
It's enough to make me want to write to Points of View.
Why, oh, why BBC?
