Happy Saint Jean Baptiste Day, everybody. I wish I were there to share a drink for real, instead of just virtually. (Raises a glass of whisky!)

Bonne fête!

Bonne fête!

I sang at a mass for the feast of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist last night. I don’t think there were any Québécois there though.

You never know - I’ve seen many Aussies up here. Never enough, though.

Happy Saint William of Vercelli/Saint Prosper of Aquitaine Day, you on the other side of the date line.

Nah, Saint William’s not important like Saint John the Baptist. We don’t bother singing for him. 🙂
