Film Set

Went to Castelsagrat last night for a big supper for 18 people at Nanda & Barry's house in the square.  The whole place was hung with red & green banners and had a stage built in the middle.  It was being used for a film shoot.  The film is built round some young music group who come to play at a Strawberry Fair in a mystical village and how it changes their lives.  Or something like that.  Tthat's why they had hung strawberries everywhere!

At the party we met an American family who bought the house next to Nanda's.  They have an 8-year-old daughter who has been horse-riding every day at Lauzerte.  They must be pretty rich because they fly over to France from USA two or three times a year for holidays.  They hit a deer too, much harder than we did because they were going at 90 kph. They said it flew up in the air and landed in the sunflowers.   Also, we met a man called Jolyon who works for the British Army as a translator in Afghanistan.  He told us about how dangerous is was living in the capital, Kabul.  Sounds AWFUL.
