I wanted to tell you about this yesterday, but I had a few misgivings, and thought it may be better to await developements - but there haven't been any, as yet!

It seems that a band of "wrong-doers" got busy on last Sunday evening and night, close to Montpellier in Southern France - not far from me. It seems that they (and it is to be presumed that they were more than one) managed to go to a vineyard, and over the period Saturday night/Sunday were able to "harvest" over 30 TONNES of........GRAPES...!

That's what one calls it. In the past, the most required tool in any French garage was a hammer,  or rather a collection of hammers to match the size of the task. Ridiculously enough, a good hammering often worked (didn't lower the bill)  and maybe this very fact was typical of those things which happened to  'non-Gallics' mainly on the paying end, and generally on holiday, which  made English people apopleptict, even redder than usual, utterly mad  and at a complete loss for words.
