Wild Boar lunch

The village of Lavausseau held a communal lunch yesterday. The pride of place were 2 wild boar turning on the spit. You can see the contraption used for turning the boar below - a Heath Robinson design utilising bicycles, batteries and oil drums. I can vouch that it tasted delicious, and that the 5 hours of lunch proved to be a happy experience for all.

Hi David,

Are the other comments ther blog equivalent of spam?

I think wild boars are protected in England. Anyway, it is nice that the French actually make the effort to do things communally.

All the best,

Borzou
