She didn't have much to say for herself and I hear she is ordinately shy. In the looks department she is, shall we say, challenged, but she disguises her face behind severe thick rimmed spectacles. Hair is tied tightly back and she was of a build that suggested she could dispose of the unwanted attentions of quite a few pigs and chickens. She had few of the normal graces that one would associate with someone of late middle age and was dressed in a fashion of extreme ordinariness and plainness.<BR/><BR/>This woman was Polish, apparently, though had lived a good part of her life in France before coming to the UK. Her name was Janne - I didn't get around to asking the surname. But had she said Grognonne I would not have been surprised. Indeed I would have expected it. I am told she knows three languages though hardly bothers to converse in any of them.<BR/><BR/>She means well though and offered me what could be taken, on a good day, as a half-smile. Had I not read your blog I wouldn't have believed such a person existed.

I suggest you ask the French goverment to do as DEFRA are doing and pay you for not rearing pigs that way it would be far less trouble.<BR/>BlossomBlossomcottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341216100768538015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818843609487177461.post-51423728133345056162007-07-05T10:39:00.000+01:002007-07-05T10:39:00.000+01:00I'm so glad the piglet wasn't squashed.

My stylist is an expert in such technology. Not for me. Never. But perhaps for the avant garde barricade tester in your household. Let her consider the color possibilities. One could go very subtle. Or. Try a combination never yet tried on any head. Surely, even in this age, there must be some such threshold to cross? Should not your locale be the one to make this move?<BR/><BR/>xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818843609487177461.post-50114728448019995192007-07-04T22:58:00.000+01:002007-07-04T22:58:00.000+01:00...and I am having difficulty in tagging five more......and I am having difficulty in tagging five more...the others have alays been there first!snailbeachshepherdesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01397158758052413758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818843609487177461.post-47014379924754498922007-07-04T22:57:00.000+01:002007-07-04T22:57:00.000+01:00is this a late Wednesday or an early Thursday?
