Poissonnerie

I was at the fishmongers before 8 am as I wanted to be in the market when it was quiet and I had a lot to do in town. However, everything went very smoothly including a visit to the tax office to begin registering for French taxes and a visit to the insurance office to sort out a complimentary medical insurance that is normal in France.There were just five of us at French conversation this afternoon, two francophones and three English. We sat outside in the shade and after some normal chat we translated a passage from a harrowing novel by André Gide.
