Carl has just served us up some grilled cheese sandwiches, and they are delicious. He has used some of the old English cheddar we bought the other day. No one has said much of anything since we got out of the van.
"I thought you were taking the van in for servicing today?" says Francois.
"It can wait till tomorrow. I have to get back to work on my article about Amanda."
"How far along are you?" say I
"I would say, near the middle of the beginning. She is quite a fascinating study."
"How so?"
"Well, she had a daughter by her boyfriend, then met this israeli guy here and they went with him back to Israel for ten years, after which she returned to Canada, gave birth to Tristan, leavig her israeli hubby behind..."
"Are you doing interviews with her?" say I.
"Mostly we're doing emails"...
