Le Changement et Les Essuie-Glaces

A week after "Le Changement", Mogette is preparing for a trip across Le Channel, and the météo man told us to expect rain.

As usual, La Deux-Chevaux Coquette had the good grace to give her propriétaire plenty of time to prepare for the voyage: the windscreen wipers packed up on a sunny Vendée Tuesday as we drove out of the lavage auto in La Roche sur Yon...And the new Président braved the downpour and the lightning on his first day in office.

Resident poet Marcel D'Oggerel summed it all up in verse:
Photo: François, Jean-Marc et Le Changement (des essuie-glaces)

It started as post-électorale semaine tranquille

...And ended with the dépose of Mogette's steering wheel

...tableau de bord

...then speed-o-mètre

...knuckles: raw

Sacré bleu!

We must enlève the heater duct

Bicoz the moteur d'essuie-glaces is

...inopérationnel.

Merci Marcel.

Stay tuned for Mogette's meanderings in the land of mushy peas and diamond jubilees.
