The show was wonderful. The evening was wonderful. We met a host of characters during & after the show, and made it home in time to catch the sunrise (or just about!). Since it was a few days ago now, and since James Bond 007 is playing on tv in the background (with the same french voices as everything else) I can’t concentrate enough to tell you all the details, suffice to say the show was fantastic. Truly. I enjoyed every minute. It was in French, but I sang along in English. We were sitting right up the front, in the Kit Kat club, drinking champagne, followed by chablis and then some ‘grignotins’ (I love that word) – munchies, miniature pretzels and ‘bonbons de saucisson’ (translated as sausage lollies) but which were really bits of salami in the shape of candy. Yum. Dinner at a restaurant nearby afterwards where we met a group of people celebrating the closing of their photo agency and who ensured the champagne kept flowing ’till the early hours, then another Quebecois (a famous one at that!), drinks in Montmartre, before coming home to wind down with a bottle of port.

It was like having New Years Eve a week early.
