New message.
He wants to know if the Mayor could be "squared away with a "good drink" and if he was open to a "deal".
I again said the Mayor is not who he needs and that this is all an EU matter, I suggested he contact Ursula von der Leyen.
He asked if I have her number.

I have spoken to our Mayor's wife (Mayor is out having lunch). She says after knowing him for thirty years he could be probably be corrupted if a date with Vanessa Paradis could be delivered as part of the deal.
I have this morning been inundated with DM's asking me to "prove" this thread. This is my answer to all of you.
If you don't want to believe it, block me, mute me or simply stop reading my tweets. All I have written is true and is still happening. I doubt Thursday will end it

"My son is coming over to sort all this out. We all feel this is very unfair and we have been badly treated. We have paid our taxe dâhabitation and we have rights. The French should not be allowed to do this, please help us in our fight to put this right.

The son has confirmed his train. Arrives at Bordeaux Saint-Jean Station 1856 local time on Thursday. He is then hiring a car and will be with us around 9pm.
He will stay at his parents house and has a meeting with the Mayor for 10am Friday morning.

To add a certain je ne sais quoi the Mayor will maintain during the meeting that he speaks only French. I know idiot son only speaks English.
I have offered to attend and "translate"

New message from idiot son.
If all this can be "fixed" on Friday he says he will take my wife and I out for a "bloody good dinner".
I am not sure if it is in the power for a regional French Mayor to fix Brexit but we shall see, he's a bright guy.

New message from the Father. He's asking me to "look after" his son when he's here. This is the second time he's requested this.
It's possible he's asking for the Corleone option.

I have found his facebook page !
I have called his boss and told him the truth, that I am trying to help his parents and that he wants to meet with a French Mayor to try and get an exception for his parents from Brexit. He said,
"He's always been a f*cking spanner"
"He's always been a f*cking spanner"

His boss just sent me a message saying,
"If he wants to waste his holiday time on this it's up to him. He's a complete plank if he thinks it will make any difference though, typical"
Hold your breath everyone, he will be here tomorrow.

The Mayor is with us here, he has dropped in for a small apéro. It seems the entire Mayor's office is now following this. He has no idea how they are all going to keep straight faces when 'you know who' turns up on Friday. One lady has switched her day off to be there.
