Widowed aunt not only has a pen, but a 4-storey pile on the western edge of Bordeaux. She lives on the first floor and the rest is virtually unused. Every year, around the end of October, she and her live-in housekeeper close up the premises and head off to the holiday home on Martinique W.I.

Her grandson is on hols from uni and has gained access to said premises. He has organised a new year’s party for his young friends and relatives. La Femme and I have been invited, and we will be in the top end of the age group.
The whole ground floor is bare boards. A few old tables have been installed. One has a record player, and one has a few dozen beers, plus an assortment of anises, bols varieties and vermouths. The main bar is a single very large barrel of some decent local red on x-shaped trestles.
The atmosphere is relaxed.

There are two kinds of music rock… & roll. Some Johnny Hallyday etc. but most of the records are English / American. Host-boy discovers that I am eeengleeesh and inveigles me into becoming the DJ. They are having difficulty reading the labels, and I’m happy to oblige as it stops people trying to make me dance.
Grateful they are, yes. I am plied with an endless supply of plastic beakers from the near-bottomless barrel and a pack of Gauloises sans filtres has appeared.
At 23.45 we all go outside for fireworks and carousing. Then at 23.57 host-boy appears. He is wheeling a sack truck bearing 3 doz. Mumm Cordon Rouge.
He proceeds to give almost everyone their very-own bottle. The air is suddenly filled with deadly flying corks, bouncing off walls and people.
The champers is eventually downed and the party starts to break up. It’s déja-vu time again. Car keys are heading my way…but host-boy is there and invites us to have one of the several mattresses supplied for the purpose.
No pillows, no bedclothes but we don’t care. Cuddle up with overcoats and so to sleep.
Bonne année.

Like the sound of the Mumm. It sounds like it's off the back of a camion.
