coucou

This is just a tiny entry to say that I'm drinking a fosters for the first time. It's a Fosters Twist (with lemon and lime). It's brewed in the EU by someone called Scottish and Newcastle in Edinburgh, so I can be comfortable about not being associated with something australian that's not australian.

As a side issue, no one in this country knows what lemon lime and bitters is. And my latest French lesson was that ordering the vindaloo in Paris does not guarantee you a dish with any hint of chilli as the Indian restaurants have adapted to the local tastes.

Otherwise, Bourge was a surprisingly lovely and interesting little city and Rhodes Island was spectacular. There were lots of gum trees too.
