Protests are afoot in Gay Paree - it seems that the 'ordinary' folk are not so happy about the proposals of M. Hollande to allow same-sex marriage. I hear all the shouting on the news and see the images in the press.
Trains, buses and other alternative transport was laid on to allow the protesters, for and against, to congregate and make their stand.
I will just stay here in the relative comfort of my home and observe from the sidelines.
It will another one of M. Hollands plans to bite the dust, peut etre.
At least the Justice Dept. are happy to throw out his ideas.
We are in the process of decorating, this has been an ongoing task for around 6 months now. It is only the hallway being done but it is looking very nice, almost finished I am pleased to say.
Himself has been papering, I did a little but found that up and down the ladder did me no good and put me in pain for a few days. It is all to do, I hope, with the arthritis in the base of my spine and how affects my hip. Referred pain can be a bit of a nuisance as you are not sure what area to treat. I did have a cortisone injection a couple of years ago and that made no difference whatsoever. I do hate to take painkillers and want to go for the natural approach to pain when possible.
The local ladies group is now in four figures, not bad in four years but it seems that a little friction is making its way in.
I suppose it is a bit like a large all girls school, you either get on or you don't, sometimes you argue, call each other names or even tell someone exactly what you think of them. You fall out and then make up and remain friends or never speak to the other party again. So far this year there have been two nasty spats.. oh dear!
The 'headmistress' has been very diplomatic over these 'infantile' postings.
There is also the lady who's house bounds on a farmers field, they had a falling out a while back, over something minor, and now the farmer is building a shed against their house. Lady and husband are now selling up, if they can.
I think that this year there will be quite a few changes here, some people will find that life is not all it's cut up to be and will be opting out and trying somewhere else.
Wheat and Chaff come to mind.
