Eating out

Hannah and Jules leave tomorrow so to celebrate - or drown our sorrows - we went out for a meal. For years the "Bar Communal" in the local village has limped along without a huge amount of custom but the new tenant has given it a real boost and there are always people there now. We ate and drank well for 15 Euros a head which after recent experiences in Bath can't be bad.
Otherwise a slightly frustrating day on the phone to EDF manipulating one's way through the dreadful range of choices, none of which matched with what I wanted. It is bad enough in English but French makes things even more inexplicable. If a huge pylon gets planted outside the house tomorrow I won't be that surprised.
