Last weekend…
It’s almost this weekend, and I haven’t told you about last weekend! How slack of me. After the service here is Paris I drove little Fifi with her new exhaust - she was very proud and wanted to show it off - down to Orleans. It was the Christmas Carol concert in English adn I really wanted to be there and enjoy it. It was even more exciting becauase Annette came with me. Everything is better when it’s shared…except chocolate cake.
We arrived early and spent an hour visiting the Christmas market in the city centre. It was lovely and crisp, music was playing, and a mug of mulled wine topped it all off! Then I saw the roasted chesnut stand and got all excited. I queued up and bought a packet like a little kid. Annette had never eaten them and I was looking forward to showing how yummy they can be. The first one was rather bitter and I dissapointedly reached for a second. As I peeled it, it split in 2 and a spotted a MAGGOT!!!! Arghhhh! I promptly gave the entire bag to a man with a rat on his sholder. Ewwww.
