Meal for the Seniors, putting it politely! Every year we have a meal for the local people over 60, organised by our commune. As you can guess it is very popular
Just to give you a taste!!
The table settings. Note the glass to the right back - aperitif was a choice of pineau, pastis or J &B, I decided to follow the Scotch rather than the French for a change!
Just a few of the locals getting ready to party...
First course was vegetable soup. Very nice too.
Red wine for the beef and white for the fish.
Delicious sole, but I felt more than full by the end of this course! Lucky there is never a rush to move on to the next course at these repas, so eating takes all afternoon!
Yummy cassis sorbet to clear the palate. Of course there was a choice of alcoholic or not! No need to ask me which my choice was!
Roast beef and vegetables.
Two of our friends.
Salade fromages. French bread is of course available through the meal.
Two more friends.
Framboisier dessert.
Myself and one of our neighbours who is also a great friend.
and our neighbour's wife and friend.
Champagne and coffee to follow.
Phew what a fabulous afternoon.
