And So I’m Back

Well, that was an interesting holiday! For the last two weeks I’ve been in France, South of Le Mans, for the wedding of a very good friend of mine. I’ll probably write more about it in due course, but just thought I’d check in and say bonjour to you.

It’s been a really unusual (though quite pleasant) experience. One of my best friends got married to a rather beautiful French girl, and as best man I went out a week before the wedding to try and help out with stuff. After that I stayed out for a further five or six days to have a little holiday. During that time I’ve been totally sucked into the French way of life. Most of the time was spent meeting with friends and family of the bride (and bridesmaid), and it seems that all we did was drink aperitifs, drink wine and eat nice food. Not a bad life - I could certainly get used to it!

The French were all extremely nice, generous and welcoming, and I really did enjoy meeting everyone. Perhaps next time we meet my French will have improved somewhat… Anyway, the pictures from the wedding and my holiday will go up on my flickr account soon, but in the meantime I’d just like to wish the bride and groom all the very best for their future together, and I look forward to us all growing old together

P.S. I get loads of spam and my spam filter is rather crap. If you’ve sent me an email in the last two weeks please bear with me - it will take some time for me to go through it all and reply.

P.P.S I’ll be getting BritBlog up and fully operational soon. More about that in another post.
