ANOTHER MEDIEVAL VILLAGE


This is Ian's watercolour painting of Larressingle, the nearby tiny medieval village near the well-known town of Condom.
My French petanque playing mates often ask me why English speaking people are always having their photographs taken at the road signs outside of Condom. This is because condom is meaningless in French - they use préservatif, which is, in turn, a strange concept in English.
