Cher tous,
Wal and I are still in France, where autumn is beginning to show its beautiful colours. The horse-chestnuts, walnuts and apples are starting to fall from the trees, when at the same time spring is in the air for you in Australia with warmer days and spring flowers starting to appear in gardens and parks.
I have heard that the AGM and movie night went well, with 25 members coming along, a film that was well received, a great atmosphere throughout the evening and even better, a new member in our committee. Thank you all for coming and thank you Jessie Bice for joining the committee, you have made a great decision!
Do you know that 14 October is National Dessert Day? Doesn’t it sound amazing ? A whole day to celebrate and indulge in cakes, tarts and all kind of desserts … Well, that's what we can all do for the whole day, and to celebrate spring and that special day, I am inviting you to prepare a fresh and delectable strawberry salad with light cream. And since I'm talking about dessert, Wal and I watched the famous Aveyron gâteau à la broche (broche cake) being made today (we are in La Couvertoirade).
Should you need to be convinced, I recommend you don't miss our next film, Diplomacy, on Thursday, October 23. In addition to masterful performances by Niels Arestrup and André Dussollier, this tense, dialogue-driven film explores moral convictions, diplomacy under pressure, and the fragile line between obedience and conscience. An evening for anyone who appreciates powerful cinema.
Put adventure back on your calendar and join us at the end of November for our next Car Adventure Tour. As we are going in a touristic area booking in advance is more than highly recommended. For those of you who are still keen to be part of this event, you’ll find all the details you need on page 3 of this issue.
Je vous fais la bise (as I recently read, it is in the French DNA
)
Sylvie
