Jean-Baptiste pours, laughs, tells more fables. More wine will mean a walk down the hill at twilight. If anything summed up both nations in one local tale, that perhaps was it. Another rumor has it: a local vineyard forged the percentage labels (downward) on a vintage to slip under a tax bracket, only to have a sizeable order returned by a customer once it had been tested and found to be incorrect on arrival in Germany. There is talk of restaurateurs sending friends of friends to buy cheese under cover so they can put Fromage de Chèvre de Carrus on their menus. Only sold to people that share the philosophies of this place in the hills. It’s only found at a handful of shops and travelling markets in the region. People travel for this cheese, not famous perhaps but known. Twice a day they make cheese here, less in summer, less still in autumn. Perfume, cigarettes, a rogue Camembert, outside influence is banned in the fromagerie I have come to know across the yard. The soft, white pucks, vulnerable in their infancy until they can form a protective layer, will take on any intrusive aromas. Leaning back - Muscat in glass, in hand, on lips - he tells of a cool spring here this year, with strong rosemary and thyme for his goats. The applied science in harmony with the pure nature of what he does. On the mantelpiece opposite, he still has the whisky I brought him back from Scotland to say thanks, and I regularly eat the cheese he supplies to say thanks for the whisky…and on it goes. Sitting by his fire, dogs huffing outside the door at wild sanglier in the vineyards as a warm breeze from the living room window breathes life into the dying embers, we talk about the day we met, that time he jumped over the wall with a chainsaw and felled my problem tree, the tree he had heard was interrupting morning-croissant-terrace bliss. This is a haven, where goats roam free and a guy and his sis make cheese like their parents did before them - by hand in small batches - that they sell to some people but not to others. The tracks into the pine forests all over these hills have hidden away the good, the bad and the interesting for generations. He’s kind of a big fish in a small way, a face around here. He and his sister Claire Gaschard own the Ferme de Carrus. Jean-Baptiste is the goat-cheese maker over the hill from my little dead-end village. He pours more of the sweet syrupy wine produced from his friend’s Muscat vineyard lower down this valley, which sits high in the Corbières, watched over by the snowcapped Pyrénées and left alone by most people. Still, an "unrighteous ban" like this will only result in a mass unsubscription by Swifty's fans unless it's righted.Jean-Baptiste Gaschard is a character. I mean seriously, it was an accident.Įxcept they can ban you for no reason. This seems like a rather retarded reason to ban someone. I've got to say that I agree with the guy a bit and I expect to see a ton of more posts just like that one. That is a surprisingly well-voiced opinion, given the fact that it's taken from well. If you can't handle the popularity your game spurs FIND ANOTHER GAME TO TAKE OVER! You BANNED ONE PERSON compared to an entire guild or an entire group of people when Swifty was the LAST PERSON to ever want to ruin ANYONES fun while gaming, the even is a pathetic excuse for lack of discipline with dealing with overpopulation. I expect blue posts about "rules and regulations" "electronic signatures" "he knew what he was doing". You banned the player who made so many people happy, they loved watching him, they loved playing with him, they loved everything that he stood for, a genuine good person and YOU Blizzard messed it all up, if you see fit to ban anyone? Why not ban every single account that was on the server at the time of the crash? Since they also contributed. You do realize that if Swifty sees fit he will be able to take legal action against the company.and win? Unless you personally made Swifty aware of each server's capacity at any given second of every day you have no right to ban him. Hundreds of people testify that Swifty had nothing to do with a server crash, he was holding a contest to get players into YOUR game. , this is an extremely unjust and unconstitutional infringement on a person's rights.
