Here are some photos I took 2 weeks ago, while I was out in the small town of Negrepelisse with the Cubs. First the Cubs and Leaders looking happy because they found the sword Excalibur (in the Boulangerie, why not?!)
Reflections at the stream
A typical "pigeonnier"
Back home, Jester Teddy takes a rest, wrapped in the Montauban Phoenix Cubs "necker"...looking very like the Saltire, I always think......but also with his UK Girlguiding Centenary one of course!

New year in Montauban Le Réveillon
Je suis allée au réveillon à la salle des fêtes de Fonneuve. Voici ce que l'Association "Vivre à Fonneuve" nous a proposé:
Ian and me enjoyed our 2nd Hogmanay at the local hall, where there was lots to eat and drink, as follows:
MENU
Apéritif et ses gourmandises ( Planters punch Ricard pizza crudités & onion soup dip)
Assiette Gourmandine (Foie gras duck terrine apple & chestnut verrine onion compote)
Assiette de Fruits de mer ( oysters whelks mussels prawns)
Filet de brochet sauce aux écrivisses ( pike in prawn sauce)
Trou Fonneuvois ( a variation on "Trou Normand": sorbet plus pear brandy)
Tournedos de Boeuf ( Tournedos potato, cep & walnut gratin green bean parcels)
Salade, plateau de 4 Fromages (green salad, cheese board)
Bûche glacée au craquant de praliné (chocolate and caramel ice cream log)
Vin rouge, vin blanc, café et champagne ( red wine, white wine, coffee & champagne)
Happy New Year! Bonne Année et une bonne santé!
