Finally, I made it to Dieppe and the end of my French sojourn. For a last meal I went to the local Pataterie, which serves everything potatoes – and 100% French potatoes at that. On Sunday evenings they have a magician who moves from table to table entertaining. His name is ‘Flechon’ – which probably means Wizard - and about 20 years old but he did a fine act, in a mixture of French and English all for my benefit.
And he was good, making me choose a card, writing my name on it and then not only finding the card in the pack but also one next, its exactly double the but without my writing. So once more he had a full pack and so let me keep my card.
Yes, he was good but then I showed him my trick. I made a whole Tartiflette disappear in about five minutes. Delicious.
