A glimpse of my life in La Rochelle

Weblog URL: http://sylvied.wordpress.com/

Reason for application:

because I am a good girl really…

Since our cultural kommandant advisor (the good Frau) has informed me that being French is no longer a treasonable offence we must give this blog our fine and unbiased scrutiny.

This weblog is a fascinating collage of photography, painting and word describing how a French woman feels about living in France. It reminds me of the time I was hidden in a barn near Lille with a pair of old goats and a lactating cow - nothing to eat for three days but raw corn and warm milk. Several weeks later Germany invaded Poland…

Through misty eyes for the happier days I grant approval.

Colonel Reginald Fotherington-Blogworthy II CEO, MD, ARSE

I find this weblog to be quite magnifique and the author, Madame Sylvie, is incredibly charming. She brings an understated sophistication to her blog through beautiful photographs and glimpses into her “secret garden.” In contrast to so many other blogs, Madame Sylvie knows how to value her readers’ time by keeping her posts short and sweet. However, it must be said that if la femme de La Rochelle makes any claims about Reichsland Elsaß-Lothringen (more commonly known as Alsace-Lorraine) I shall rescind any compliments immediately.

Approval ist granted.

Frau von Sauertraut, Cultural Advisor

    I’d just like to say that I do feel as though I’m being a bit side-lined here actually. I am familiar with this blog and I must say that I am, in fact, rather doubtful that the author is a ‘good girl’. I have my suspicions that ’she’ is actually a trucker from Liverpool whose real name is Alfred…….. but I’m only a humble PA, what do I know?

    Ms Tutt - you may be onto something there. Perhaps the Colonel and the young Frau should mount an investigation. I have met the person in question and there was a whiff of diesel about her/him ………..

    One should tread carefully as your case is still under review…

    Ah tea. A jolly good idea. In a pot. And a biscuit while you’re about it. Have we any Jammy Dodgers?
