Amanda: En Suisse

I am in Switzerland.

I overdosed on chocolate from a well-appointed confiserie at the airport. We were picked up at the airport by Danielle Gerber. I am not sure what the country was like through which we drove, since it was cloudy and dark and I fell asleep. It took a couple of hours to get to Heinz and Madeleine Stucki’s House to deliver a Gyp pup from Ireland. They had a beautiful house, timberframe, and fabulous smells coming out of the kitchen. Heinz spoke no English. Danielle is fluent, and Madeline spoke English, and I even tried French, which went surprisingly well. We had a great dinner, scalloped potatoes, cabbage with apples, delicious stew and–this was great–stewed chestnuts. We are headed back to Danielle’s and bed. Danielle has a mate to Bev Lambert’s new Irish bitch. Can’t wait to see her.

Editor’s Note: Bev Lambert has just purchased a new bitch from Ireland on the recommendation of her suicidal friend Amanda. Let it never be said that Amanda doesn’t go out of her way to help her competition beat her!
