The Rendezvous Editor's Blog: December 2008

The Rendezvous Editor's Blog. Normandy’s English language magazine opens each month with the Editor’s Blog. How do you actually use up a salary of £18 million? There is a poster which reads: ”I’ve been rich, I’ve been poor. Rich is better.” How true. Being short of money is soul-destroying, marriage-wrecking. Repeating “no, we can’t afford it” to bright eyed children is very dreary. But £18 million? How do you actually use up that much money? Does any sane person want a gold-plated yacht? There's a level...

The Rendezvous Editor's Blog. Normandy’s English language magazine opens each month with the Editor’s Blog. It is nobody’s business. Who I am or. What I am doing". In the newspaper world, August is known as the silly season. The general shutdown means there is so little news around that editors end up running bits of nonsense - singing dogs, alien landings etc - to fill their pages. Just think of the employment opportunities if we continue down this route! But of course these aren’t just silly seas...

The Rendezvous Editor's Blog. Normandy’s English language magazine opens each month with the Editor’s Blog. If none of us has any money, we can’t employ or buy services from each other. This should be a cheery column about all those jolly resolutions we make and break at this time of year. But I think we’re all a bit jaded, this January, for such nonsense? Most of us are vacillating between stiff upper lip, we’ll get through it, heroism and explosions of blinding panic. Then there are all the French busi...

The Rendezvous Editor's Blog. Normandy’s English language magazine opens each month with the Editor’s Blog. Ever noticed how men swim the same way they drive - over-taking, cutting in, then holding everybody up. It’s that time of year when a glimpse of daffodil cheers the heart and hints that maybe - who knows? The sun will put in an appearance this summer. It also reminds us, however, that lardy winter bodies will soon be unwrapped and put on show. Apparently so. You only have to do something new - ...

The Rendezvous Editor's Blog. Normandy’s English language magazine opens each month with the Editor’s Blog. Virtual Passions - April blog 2008. I am one of those mean parents who considers that a television, computer and Game Boy is quite enough screens for one child and am thus deaf to pleas for Gamecubes, Nintendo Wiis, PlayStations, X boxes or whatever else is on the market. And we all need a dose of junk TV from time to time - not least children who have just walked in from a ten-hour school day.

There is a computer game which, so the blurb goes, has been specially designed to tax the older brain and keep it perky. I don’t need this software - I get more than enough mental stimulation trying to make head and tail of my daughter’s text messages. Take this one, from last month’s school trip to Italy: Ostia zin. Is the ancient Roman port spectacularly narrow? As we gear up for that annual scre...
