It has been a week full of anxiety, commotion
and anger, in Griset, but it all came to a happy
end today with a "plumbery party" !
Last week, the heater in the bathroom began
to grumble and scream for help :
"I'm too hot, I feel faint, I want to pee and
I'll make a holy mess if nobody cares for me".
It was critical.
So I gathered a dozen specialists and we formed a committee of inquiry around a
few bottles of Burgundy wine (Volnay) and some appetizers, in a warm and friendly
atmosphere.
After we deliberated, we went to the action : the heating temperature was reduced
and the security group changed. The night was young, when we broke up, staggering but proud of the accomplished
work. We all agreed with enthusiasm to meet again in a few days - same bathroom/
same time, to ease the heater's tank from a few pounds of limestone.
The heater also agreed. ____... and one week later :
... with 448 posts and 27595 visits since February 2007.and yesterday, as a present, this :
For some reason, in a couple of days, my counter has gone crazy with your visits and went,
from an average of 50-60 per day, up to almost 300.
The main target was an old post from December 2008, relating a movie broadcasted by Arte
about the Japanese art of Shibari. For the first time, visitors were mostly French, which is even
more surprising since the film is French and was aired on a French TV channel.If I still don't understand the reasons of this sudden passion for the Shibari, I sure enjoy the results.Merci, Danke, Thanks, Bedankt, شكرا لك, Obrigado, ありがとうございました, Grazie and
Gracias to you all, whether you are a PPG's Friend, a Follower, a Passerby or... just an Alien.
