Very much looking forward to Friday.

I'm looking forward to Friday. Have told hubby that if he can't make it, tough, I'm going anyway!!!
Maybe we could all wear French flags in support of Novo's departure? I have one somewhere I could drape over my shoulders?

You should all sing "La Marseillaise" to him.

Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé!
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'etendard sanglant est levé! (bis)
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes,
Mugir ces féroces soldats?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Égorger nos fils, nos compagnes!

Refrain

Aux armes, citoyens!
Formez vos bataillons!
Marchons! Marchons!
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons!

Just butting in the highly recommend the bean burger with extra bacon food option at the 'Yard. Significantly better than the Caesar salad I had during round one.
