Aperitive

Francia, agosto 2007, La Rochelle, el verano nunca llegó este año, el viento helado te cala los huesos y los pocos rayos de sol que salen tímidamente de entre las nubes te dan la morriña de los veranos de antes, el calor, el salitre, el sudor y las gotas de alguna botella de cerveza medio vacía. Las cosas no han cambiado mucho y tampoco las costumbres, llega la hora, rondan las siete y el aperitive se prepara, casi impepinables llegan las cervezas (eso sí, a temperatura ambiente), las botellas de vino de alguna cosecha no muy lejana y poco conocida, el pastis (bebida anisada que se suele mezclar con agua), el ron de las antillas (si puede ser de 50°, por favor), botellas de martini, etc., y no muy lejos de estas llegan sus propietarios. Todo se concentra alrededor de una pequeña mesa de playa dispuesta en un jardín verde, con sus estupendos árboles verdes, sus sillas verdes y unos estupendos toldos verdes a rayas blancas que cobijan a casi toda la tribu que acaba de traspasar la brillante cancela verde del jardín.



Voilà!, comienza la fiesta, puedo distinguir el ruido de las chapas de las botellas de cerveza mientras saltan encima de la mesa, el gorgojeo del vino cayendo en las copas, el crepitar de los hielos sumergidos en el ron, las gargantas sedientas empiezan su festín hablando y riendo mientras apuran sus vasos con una velocidad vertiginosa.


Van pasando las horas y lo que parecía ser algo inocente se convierte en una bacanal, el jardín, antes iluminado por las últimas luces del día con su verde esplendor pasa a ser iluminado por unas débiles bombillas que amenazan con caer desde lo alto de los toldos, los invitados que habían ido llegando con la consiguiente cortesía (hipocresía) que les caracteriza, la tan conocida y afamada politesse francesa; ...bonjour...comment ça va?...ah, oui oui ...ji, ji, ja, ja... se iban transformando en personajes salidos de los mejores cuentos de tolkien, hobbits que cantaban en aullidos, elfos que hablaban en alaridos y orcos que tronaban mientras sus puños cerrados caían violentamente encima de la mesa.


Ahora rondan las doce de la noche, me dispongo a darme una vueltita por el jardín para cambiar de aires y de manera indiscriminada empiezan a atacarme esos indeseables mosquitos gabachos, como si estuvieran esperándome agazapados entre la oscuridad de las sombras de los arboles arremeten contra cualquier parte de piel desnuda que asoma de entre la ropa... voilà!, en menos de media hora cuento con ocho picadas situadas en lugares inverosímiles; entre los dedos, las orejas, el cuello, los dedos de los pies... así que, sin más dilaciones me doy la vuelta maldiciendo las malas bestias, y dando bandazos en el aire me dirijo de nuevo al meollo de la fiesta. Por el camino me voy encontrando caras conocidas embelesados en conversaciones tribales sobre drogas, barcos y zarcozí, todo un clásico y tengo la impresión de que ya lo he vivido antes, una especie de feed back o es que siempre es lo mismo, diviso mi silla en la que he permanecido sentada unas buenas cuantas horas escuchando y repitiendo como un loro las respuestas a las mismas preguntas que, casualmente, todos te van haciendo a lo largo de la noche... deben de tener un guión porque lo hacen, curiosamente, en el mismo orden o... simplemente entra dentro de la politesse, no sé... vaya usted a saber. El caso es que me siento en aquella silla que ya me es algo familiar y me asaltan a la cabeza mil y una historias de huida, cómo escaquearme de la bacanal sin ser vista, deshacer el camino corriendo mientras salto la valla gritando como una posesa, o romper las bombillas con alguna gravilla cercana a los toldos y salir tan normal por la cancela, meterme en el coche y esperar, o salir como la niña salvaje que soy dispuesta a no decir ni una palabra mientras camino con aire distraído entre la multitud de personajes élficos... en fin, me decanto por la última opción, en donde una vez he atravesado la cancela verde me encuentro que empieza a amanecer, el viento te corta el aliento pero a lo lejos puedo ver cómo un sol exageradamente naranja despunta con sus rayos tímidamente el horizonte tiñéndolo todo de un color púrpura... hoy será un buen día para sonreír.

La otra posibilidad es salir corriendo en dirección contraria desde el principio. ¡Están locos estos gabachos!

Hi guys,

I know this might be a bit off topic but seeing that a bunch of you own websites, where would the best place be to host. Someone recommended I use [url=http://bit.ly/aTAtZb]Blue Host[//url] for $6.95 a month which seems like a great deal. Anyone here on www.blogger.com using them?

Once upon a time air travel was a great deal simpler than it is today. You called one of a few airlines that flew from your airport, the agent would tell you what flights were available for a given time, and you booked the one you wanted. Airports were always bustling places, especially during the holidays, but as long as you gave yourself adequate time, the process was usually the same. You would check your bags, go through the x-ray machine, get your boarding pass, and wait patiently at the appropriate gate. Once you got on the plane you ate the snack or meal that came with your flight and watched a movie.

In recent years travel by plane has become significantly more complicated. There are so many different configurations for flights and types of fares. Dire economic circumstances have caused airlines to raise rates and charge extra fees for everything from baggage to blankets. There are complex rules about what you can and cannot carry in your luggage. It can be very difficult to determine whether you are getting the best deal or the best services when you buy an airline ticket. The internet makes the navigation of airlines, airports, and flight itineraries easier, but, even so, be prepared to do some research if you want to find a flight at the best price.

Here is something up front that might save you time and money right off the bat. If you are traveling within the United States mainland, always look at Southwest Airlines first. Southwest is almost always the best deal you will find. However, Southwest itineraries do not appear on the major travel websites, so always go directly to the airline's website for information. Plug in your travel plans, and you will get a list of all the flights that are available. Southwest typically charges more reasonable prices than other airlines, and there are no hidden fees. The price you see is the price you get although tax and the government fee that is attached to all flights does apply. For lower prices than you can probably get anywhere else look at the "web only" fares, but keep in mind that these fares are not refundable.

Let's start in the past and work forward - seems to be fairly logical. Starting just before the Matt Busby era at United my first selection is Jack Rowley. He joined United before Busby came along. Though not the whole story, naturally a striker is measured to some extent by his goal tally. Rowley managed to net 211 times in 424 games for United before leaving the club in 1955. His tally of 211 makes him one of only 3 players to break the 200 mark. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]arsenal football[/url] In anticipation of the 2002 Commonwealth Games, which Manchester hosted, several first class sporting facilities were constructed and this further boosted sports development in the city. These venues include the Manchester Velodrome, the City of Manchester Stadium, the National Squash Centre and the Manchester Aquatics Centre. [url=http://www.pulsebet.com]dimitar berbatov[/url] Manchester United Football Club is an English football club that plays in the Premier League. The Red Devils as they are commonly known have more than 300 million world-wide supporters. Meaning that out of every 20 people on earth, one of them will be a Manchester United Fan! Currently managed by Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United are one of the most successful teams in the history of English football having won 21 major titles since he became manager in 1986. During its remarkable history, many distinguished players have run out in the famous Manchester United shirt which can trace its origins back when Manchester United were known as Newton Heath Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Football Club.
