Les Bleus de Castres have just won the Championship de France.
19 points to 14 points
On a gagné!
So tense I couldn’t watch! Followed it on the the internet. The kitchen has never been so clean. I even prepared my breakfast for the morning.
It went down to the wire but Castres held on.
Allez les Bleus!!

Following in that other blue team’s (Chelsea’s) footsteps.
Yay! Happy for you! We shall be in Carcasson, Castres and at the Terrasse in June, looking forward to seeing la belle France – better be nice weather!
Why is it that life seems brighter just because your team wins? 🙂 Unfortunately, the reverse is also true 😦
Thanks for the report. How exciting. Enjoy the victory parties!
Hi Robin
After your enthusiastic support of Castres on the rugby field, I wonder if you will be watching the France vs All Blacks Test Match being played here in NZ this evening? Our team has several new young players so it should be an exciting game.
Allez Nouvelle Zealande! I just hope we don’t end up being Les Miserables!

P.S. Thank you for your always interesting and informative posts. Your recipes are formidable! (typed with a strong French accent!)
Thanks, Lana.
Allez les Bleus for the second Saturday running. Same doubts though! the French have to be the underdogs against the formidable All Blacks.
