Imagine my horror in finding out that the tradition of veiling of statues had almost died out in France. Imaging my further horror in seeing that I have 19 statues in the sanctuary.
I simply have to try to veil the statues!
I have bought the material and in the next few days will start to make veils. I even have pinking shears.
The woman in the shop thought that I simply didn’t understand French numbers when I asked for 20 metres. She just looked at me quizzically, I’m sure thinking “poor little English man not understanding French.” Well, she was wrong! Wrong, I tell you, wrong!
