If you go to www.meteofrance.com you might be lucky and not only discover how the weather is with us but also catch the Orange advertisement that is announcing the arrival of La Fibre in Lieurac.WE knew already! As usual we have more than our fair share of things. Best weather, loudest bells, most fibre!
In the Ariège it is almost a tradition to be late for appointments, but nowadays you don't even have to try that hard. No matter which way you turn the road is blocked by la Fibre laying processions.
They are creeping slowly over our roads and indeed through all the villages, all over France, in one great coup. They have laid their cables through Raissac, laying dust on the flourishing potager of the 80 year plus lady in the blue stripped pinafore, on through the new immaculately repaired subsidence at Saut de la Mule. Through Tanière, narrowly avoiding the three sheep dogs that inhabit the middle of the road and on to Rapi. Where they have momentarily paused before the ancient bridge. When they have finished all of France's main electricity cables will be underground! Voila.
