SYNOPSIS: But then I guess, better late than never. In this podcast, many belated New Year wishes… first some news and then I explain how in France you have until the end of January to do your cards and wish the best for 2008 (I know, excuses!). I also bring you a soundscape recorded during my Christmas break in Edinburgh: join me on a trip to the bank and the post office in windy Scotland.

SYNOPSIS: Hear about my wonderful 30th birthday celebrations, spread over three weeks! And the slightly less joyous events unfolding in Paris and the rest of France as we are being held hostage by trade unions defending archaic benefits for rail and metro workers. The title, amour et galère, translates as love and toil.
