I was in our local hostelry with the Mem'Sahib today when one of the local "Sans Dents" wanted to know what I thought of Brexit. My reply to him was "Why should I care, I'm French. What happens in Paris, Marseille or Lyon has bugger all effect on life down here so why should I give a toss about what's happening over the Channel?"
The only thing that affects me (and it's very selfish I must admit) is the Pound/Euro exchange rate, but that's only because my pension is paid in Sterling and if the pound drops I lose out (and have done considerably since 2008 so nothing's new).
I shall try and concentrate on things I can control and forget about things I can't. Another Pastis please, Patron. Santé.
