and so it begins
How do I know that spring has officially sprung? These pretty little flowers have sprouted, and the first camping car has been spotted. Let the 2012 tourist season begin! (that was said in my Hunger Games voice by the way) bisou

Papped
Yesterday Fifty and I got papped by some tourists while out for our walk. Tourists with the largest camera I’ve ever seen, you know, one with a crazy big lens that can be used to take photos of celebs sunbathing topless on a yacht off the coast of St Tropez. Like, one of those. This just…

Windblown
image: wikimedia I now know the meaning of windblown. Yesterday the winds in Le Petit Village were whipped into a frenzy. A frenzy being one of winds so hard and forceful that you walked at a slant and had to shout to be heard. And if you want to know who I was shouting at…
