WINE NOT

If you can't find me for some reason, it's probably because I'm hiding in Blaye, France at a bed & breakfast called Villa St. Simon. I will be writing a book, sipping on "Chateau Marquis de Vauban" and eating oysters and samosas on Sundays. The three people that own & work here are superior human beings - totally knowledgeable and fun to hang out with. They were probably the happiest bunch of people I've ever met. So I think living in a small French town might be good for all of us.



I knew I liked this guy Les and it wasn't just the leather vest!


This is the fabulous Julian, who once rode in Quadrophenia next to Sting.


EVIL FIG GUTS!


This lil' 1966 Solex was so fun! Even though Julian was too nervous to let me on the street with it. Here is also his custom Deux Chevaux. Built in tire-rack. Brilliant bloke.


Note that I don't know what I'm doing half the time so I ordered a 1/2 carafe for myself at lunch after Jill ordered a smaller one.


Oh the french zey are too much!

NIGHT MOVES

I see a theme here: wherever I go I must book an apartment with a really awesome view of some famous church! This particular beauty is from the east side of le Sacre-Couer near the Montmartre.
