Hi from Beautiful Brittany,
Richmond,
I think we all win. I am Irish and live in Brittany
René is from Brittany and lives in Paris (where I
lived for 40 years), you are Scottish and live in
........ Bulgaria ?????
We are all expats of some sort ... :>)
Does Bulgaria have Celtic origins ?
Well . . . the ancient Thracians had red hair, as do I.
However, let's remember that the word 'Celtic' is a load of romantic
tosh cooked up by the same sort of people who allotted specific
tartans to specific families and rebranded a Scotland raped by the
Hanoverians
and the continuing English Yoke as something cutesy to stick on shortbread
boxes.
Do you have to import your whiskey ?
Not with that spelling . . . :)
I hardly drink alcohol at all, and when needs be I find the local
red wine suffices very well indeed.
Do you wear your "tartan breeks" in the Bulgarian
winter ?
heaven forfend; trews occasionally, breeks never; and my
plaid as often as is practicable.
Best Regards from the lovely port of La Trinité
(The snow has melted, and the sun is shining)
.......... et bonjour à tous les Celts !
-Francis
