Predictable Chaos Theory
The Savins arrived, and before you could say “where’s the wine cooler”, the first bottle of rose had disappeared. Peter is of course old enough to be my dad, well, he looks like it, only in a mature, genial and aristocratic way you understand, and my plan was to ensure that he was properly hung over before I collect my golf winning this afternoon. What I had not factored in though, was that to keep him company I had to drink an inordinate amount as well, thus negating the best laid plans! I have realised that possibly my main reason for living is as a warning to others (thanks again Pete!).
I have been volunteered to run the bar at the Mougins School Summer Fair on June 19th, and require more volunteers to help. The deal is that I will not be rude about you in this blog for a whole week if you come and help, unless of course anyone does anything stupid (see back issues, Nigel Hindley, Lucy Bird, etc. etc). The best part of the deal of course is that I get to sit at the top table during the committee meetings such as the one this morning, with about 50 gorgeous yummy mummies!
I hear that at the red radish guerilla beach party, which will be staged in the evenings not lunch time as I had thought, one Mike Hardaker from Anglo Info in a throw back to his rock n roll days may be performing.
I hear from an old friend, whose name has to remain secret,of his attendance at a particular annual event which involves getting lashed with his mates. After the event he could not find his car and in an inebriated state went to the police station to report it stolen, only to find the next day that he taken the train, the car was still at home!
And so the £ crashed through the 1.20 barrier, and I read a report yesterday that predicts 1.35 by the end of the year, which will please many of us poor souls that earn in £.
After golf today, to Nice tomorrow for some business, but work will be over by lunch time and then I believe a few people are coming at the behest of the wife to celebrate the opening of her new terrace, pictured above, now finished, I am hoping for an invitation myself, an invitation that is to pay for the drinks and finger buffet she is no doubt even now abusing my credit cards to pay for.
