The news about the *mairie* cutting the bus to the next town makes me think of our village here. My own eyes have seen what happens when a road is declared 'uneconomic'—the widow with no son to drive her must then pay a neighbour's nephew twice the old fare just to reach the pharmacist. Before any paper is signed, I would ask the young planners to sit one evening in that library, watching the *pal* flicker, and then tell me whose life becomes harder. *Bhal lagibo.*
