Petula Clark et moi

This afternoon I went to Chatel St. Germaine
to an arts/cultural centre where a small group
meet every Monday afternoon to create in
clay.  My people!  Not only do I get to create
in clay but I listen to everyday French and jump
in the conversation when I can.  One woman said
"vous ressemblez a Petula Clark."  All I could
think of was the song downtown.  This same
woman then said, "you have the same accent!"
I replied, in English?  She said, no in
French.  I didn't even know Petula sang in French.
After coming home I did some research online
regarding Petula.  First, she didn't have even one 
freckle and after this summer mine have 
multiplied a thousand fold. Secondly, she
actually can sing!  As for the accent en 
Francais, je ne sais pas!
Petula en francais....

As I was leaving the women all said au revoir to Petula!
I think I am going to enjoy this group of women.
