The church art looks to have inspired a deck of cards, particularily the Jacks, Jack.

That was an interesting fact. I didn't know France had fought and lost a battle there. Mexico is very much in the news at the moment but not all for the good reasons. Keep up the good work. W

Thanks for the informative and mouthwatering post, It all makes me thirsty for a cool glass of Pommeau.

however, your recipe left me salivating!
