The heavily pregnant bakers wife is in non-communicative mood today. I'd reckon she's at the six month stage. Is it my imagination or do the cakes have a slight 'I can't be bothered with this ' appearance ?
While Angus and the PONs share a croissant they watch the French President give a speech about agriculture. He seems to say that 25% of farmland has been lost to urban development in the last 50 years. That surely can't be right.
Another day of bright sunshine. The bees and the butterflies out in force. They can't seem to come to terms with their good fortune of having summer temperatures this early in the year. Angus, being a Presbyterian, tells the PONs to enjoy the good weather while it lasts. He knows that even now a frigid blast of cold arctic air is marshalling it strength to rush down upon us and freeze unlagged pipes.
The two tikes are on school holiday. They have been given a boom box. They do wheelies over the speed bumps for much of the afternoon. The boom box hangs from the elder tike's handlebars and blares French hip hop as they cavort. The sight of two pre-teens doing wheelies coupled to the raucous noise from the boom box has the PONs barking mad. At one stage we even get the PON howl as they stand on their hind legs at the gate.
This could be Sophie. The markings are almost identical - as is the frenetic energy level : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C25iieZ8L90
We don't watch a lot of television but 'The Font' has taken to following Ride upon the Storm. A Danish story. Dark and brooding and very Nordic . Its plot, to non-Scandinavians, seems completely impenetrable. The music is good. Here are some uber kool Danes listening to a young lady sing the theme tune while they eat what appears to be a jelly bean tart : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKkY_WktsiU

I love the PON video, but I think I can understand why border collie are favoured for sheep herding!
Cheers, Gail.
PS All the wrong rugby results yesterday.
The cakes are rather lack luster. Glad to hear it is warming up for you while it chills down here.

I dunno - that custard start is still calling me... Oh you just had to remind me of the results... &*<
...and I don't think Kolka would get very far in One Man and His Dog...

That flan looks awfully familiar.
The interesting snippet I saw from the Macron talk was him lauding French farmers for getting the poisonous glyphosate Roundup stuff out of the food chain in three years rather than the originally estimated ten. That's long-term health for some who would otherwise have sickened.
