While all this was taking place, something was amiss at Ste-Rosalie.
There's some loud grumbling going on...



People from various farms gathered at " Agricole Idéal " the local distributor and they are not happy !
Even the more restrained Jean-Louis is present. Coming out of his splendidly restored 1970 Dodge Van he loudly grumbled:

"Non-de-Dieu, there's no way! " said Jean-Louis amongst the crowd

" So what exactly is going on ? " said Patrique has he was stepping away from his Honda

" What ? You haven't heard ? Look around ! Even le Belge is here ! said Jean-Louis.

He was pointing at the tall, older Robert, who was, evidently , from Belgium. He came here a very long time ago to start fresh and had a smaller size
farm, growing Brussels Sprouts ( Chou de Bruxelle ).

You could always spot Robert no matter where he went, because he brought his Renault R4 with him all those years ago.



" Ha!" Said Patrique. " So it is that bad after all ?"

" Yes it is " said Jean-Louis





What were they referring to?
