It's hard enough being a tea drinking vegetarian in France, so I'm glad neither of us have other dietary requirements we'd have to struggle to explain. Last night we were invited to a dinner party at some friends of Cathy. She had explained in advance that we were vegetarian, and the response had been "that's ok, we're having paella"....
oh well. still after some salad, lots of bread and cheese and two deserts each we didn't feel hard done by....
I've given up on ordering tea as well - I'll just stick to Chocolat Chaud.

Oh merde, hope you get used to drinking coffee- otherwise tru taking your own tea-bags and ask for "une tasse de l'eau chaude avec une nuage de lait!"- its a quote from a famous Asterix & Obelix in Britain episode, where all the locals drank such things because tea hadn't been discovered- and the bards were called John, Paul, George and Ringo:-) Trudi & I have spent days decorating here, so its nice to hear about your adventures... rock on guys!
