Human nature

Something unbeatable with the English is their way of queueing ! I have to say that their "savoir-vivre" and good manners are seriously lacking in French people.

I'm just back from the horses' fair where in the end I took Laura, Kévin and Amandine. It was good but what a chaos for the poney and carriage riding. That's when all of a sudden you feel ashamed of being amongst the crowd of bad-mannered-bad-mouthed-people-who-think-they-have-all-the-rights ! People are such liars too it makes you want to hit them really ! I managed to get a little boy to have his turn (his Mum was so shy and young he had no chance to ever have a go !) but the following round when it was Amandine's turn at last and I wasn't going to let anyone jump the queue again, I was the one attacked because apparently Amandine had gone in front of everybody else?! People can be so mean it's incredible !

Poor Laura patiently waited for ages to have a ride in the horse carriage but she never got a turn. Even on crutches... compassion just doesn't exist anymore !

Apart from that we saw a really nice voltige show, Amandine was fascinated and she doesn't get impressed very easily lol.

I don't think Laura can really be expected to go to school on crutches. She was exhausted from her outing, she has blisters on her hands and she didn't have an 8 kilos school bag on her back ! I'm going to see if through the health insurance we couldn't get her a private tutor for a while.
