Flying Visit

Guy (our son) who is now working in Taiwan, has returned to Europe for 3 weeks to see all of his friends (as well as us).  He's out here with us for a few days and last night we went with some friends to a Marché Gourmand at St Pompon, one of the many little villages in this part of France.

You have to take cutlery and crockery and be there fairly early so you can claim one of the tables laid out for 'customers'.  You then choose and buy your dinner from the range of vendors offering anything from, Duck and Foie-gras, chicken, paella, sausages, steaks etc and then pastries and crepes.  So you can make up a 3 course meal if you wish to!

As the evening progresses and the wine flows, discussions can get lively.  There were more people than tables, so an old French couple sat on the end of our table, and I ended up having a good discussion about Brexit and European politics with them!!!
A nice warm evening and a lovely atmosphere.
