A long time ago I went to Giverney with a then girlfriend and toured the house of Claude Monet.
I bought some postcards of plants and bits of water and went completely mad.
"Because of my paparazzi status, I got into the museum with my camera without having to pay.
So you could say I got my Monet for nothing and my clicks for free. Yes Paul is in dire straits .....
That made the trip for me. It was probably the kiss of death for the relationship.
Ho hum. I went to the Monet exhibition at the Grand Palais and felt duty bound to remember the lines. Still remember the girlfriend. Difficult to forget really since we had once bought a house together.
But looking back on it I don't think she ever swore to love me till the end of eternity.
Probably didn't have a chance to vow allegiance because I was too busy seeking corny lines for postcards.
I did not get any postcards from the exhibition today as there were queues.
There was a queue to get in and there were hoards of people looking at the pictures.
It was a sumptuous display.
Almost as good as a certain post card caption.
