A bit of sad news which I did not have time to mention here: we discovered about a week ago that the fancy clothes shop that used to have Action Men on display once a year, around this time of year (March and April) has closed down. I saw one lying down on an empty shelf and it made me very sad. Action Men are the action figures I wish I had known when I was a child. They are the quintessential British toy in my opinion. I have one Action Man myself, which I hope will be the subject of many adventures played by my son and I together. Still, I am sad that they will no longer on display in the window of that clothes shop.Blogue d'un québécois expatrié en Angleterre. Comme toute forme d'autobiographie est constituée d'une large part de fiction, j'ai décidé de nommer le blogue Vraie Fiction.

Too bad! I hope they find a new home somewhere.
