In His Own Words
About him
Kindness and wonder are two of my attributes; and I don't just keep them for special occasions!
The Puits de Mons
Exploring picturesque rural lanes of the Poitou-Charentes, I occasionally came across the Cure’s goat. He always looked at home, with not a care in the world; while taking his ease with his pals in the leafy shade beside an old well. Now I’m good at acting the goat, and being an old one, we naturally had a lot in common.
His English was pretty good and we soon fell to talking. He said his name was Billy and I thought, what a coincidence. During one of our conversations; shortly before I was due to come home, he started to tell me about the “Puits de Mons.” An ancient magic well by his account, and if I placed a silver coin into its mystical waters I would be granted a wish.
I thought he was “Kidding, butt,” you never know with goats, and who am I to argue with a Frenchman in his own land. It was then I spied a corpulent cleric approaching. I guessed it to be the Cure’, after all Billy was his goat. I greeted the cleric; told him what had been said and asked if it were true.
A strange look came over his face, and in heavily accented English; not as good as Billy’s, he asked how on earth I could have had a conversation with a goat? Well I must admit when you think about it, it’s hard to believe; I felt foolish and totally embarrassed.
Butt in for a penny in for a pound, I quick as a flash threw a silver coin into the well...!
Now that I’m home I must admit I do miss that goat and our conversations
