Flamey goodness and fried eggs

Whoops...blog nearly died again. I will be betterer...promise! So...what news? Last weekend David and I went up to Parc de la Villette to watch a "pyrotechnic spectacular". Of course, after a fortnight of unseasonably hot weather, the one night we're standing about in a field it chooses to chuck it down. So....very....wet! But the show continued and it was fab. Lots of flame and glittery fireworks set to music...and then there were the human fireworks (I wouldn't have that job if you paid me many millions!) who wandered around with giant stegosaurus like creations strapped to them which spurted flame and sparklynesses. I do have photos but Bernard is being silly and won't let me upload them. Twas well good though!

Sunday Lis and Jon came over and we experienced out first Sushi takeaway...very very yummy...and also delivered to the door by a man on a little pink scooter which made it all the more worthwhile if you ask me. Then we went to the "paradis du fruit", a cafe-ish place near my flat to have smoothies and pudding. Discovered strawberry and garden mint ice cream...quite possibly the nicest thing inthe world!

Have been pootling mainly this week....doing a bit of dissertationy stuff and exploring the area around ze flat. Hopefully should have another piece in the paper this weekend about fried eggs and eurostar and why the French love to mock us so very very much.

Tonight am off to the cinema to see the devil wears prada. Yay for girly films and french subtitles!! Right...am going to go as am illicitly sending this at work..heehee.

Bye bye xx
