Les Diaberels (again). Following on from yesterday’s story.

Whilst at Les Diablerets the international motor show in Geneve was running. A local mountain musical group was sent to play and entertain. Maurice said it was a disaster. They just got drunk and enjoyed themselves. Hardly played a thing. What Maurice went on to say amused me. He said “you just can’t send mountain folk to town”. What amused me was the similarity to Australia with outback people, ringers in particular. You just can’t send them to town. (They won’t come back until their money has run dry).
