strange old world

So there we were, having dinner at Max and Andreas... but lo! What is Mike doing there? Surely he is en route to Mayotte with Hilary?
Alas; they were at the airport when the customs persons showed that for once they were paying attention. Mikes passport is 20 days out of date.
He kissed his wife goodbye and re-booked his flight, hoping that he can find a consulate that will update his documents in the next couple of days.
By the time he got home after this sorry debacle, his dinner was in my chickens. Andrea and Max took pity and asked him over; with Kat, Dick and Humbert it was a very merry night though of course Mike is concerned about Hilary, having to manage her holiday without him.
The rest of us had a hoot though:)) (Sorry Hilary)

Here are Humbert, petite moi, Max, Dick, Kat and the missing Mike - Andrea must have taken the photo.
Tomorrow is the grand arrival of the Toques et Clocheristes... my guests Steve and Jeanie are still here, its just that out paths haven't crossed. They spent today sunbathing in Collioure.
Hoping to catch them tomorrow.
