Four classes – conditional tense. CDs too fast – I am OK with reading and writing, but am at a loss with the speed of spoken French. Spent the afternoon on-line in the Grand Salle. Then we all watched a movie – LOL. (as in Laughing out loud, the online acronym – pitched for the young people, but leaned a lot of swear words in French). Dinner – salad, with cheese tart, salmon with divine sauce and rice, cheeses with bread, apple compote (apples from the tree in the garden). We met three more of Madame’s grandchildren – Artur 5, Anatole 3, and Louis 10 months, cousins of Matthius whom we met yesterday. She had been looking after them all day. She looks after grandchildren every day, accommodates and feeds five students, and says she gave up work when she retired from nursing!
