Battypuss Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I had a party to introduce myself to the locals and celebrate the 50th anniversary of D-day. Part of it was a barbeque; I flung on everything I could think of or find...the only thing that remained was the English sausages! I did invite the mayor and was told he NEVER went to peoples houses. He was the first arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 www.dordogne-on-line.infoWe did a bbq for our french neighbours last summer, we did chicken and pork and they loved it, BUT they did expect to sit down for the meal, not like in the uk, where everyone wanders round with a cob with a burger on and pick at the food. They would not have a drink until all the food was ready, then apperitif, then the meal with wine, followed by cheese and then pudding. However, it was a wonderful day, started at midi and finished about 6.00 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
