fyds Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Back to St Malo tonight, before the journey home to stay at a friends hotel in the intra Muros walled town. The Mrs has a migraine, and needs a kip, so the nipper and I decide to go walkies and have a bite to eat. Nice meal of Moules aux Creme a the unlikely named 'Timothy' restaurant, then a walk around one of Katja's favourite towns. As mum was asleep, katja had decided it was time to give her secrely packed 'Kuyt' homeshirt a run-out. We were walking down the Rue de la Cornes de Cerf when a heavily accented french voice started with 'Five times...we won it five times....' we turned to olook to see a big fat french bloke called Yves, who owns a kebab shop in the street singing at the top of his voice and smiling broadly at us...his kebab shop was called 'Istanbul' and on the back wall was a huge flag with five stars and a pic of Rafa and Xabi. We ate again and drank Pelforth bier and orangina washed down with ice cream. A police man and several others joined in the singing for half an hour or more. It was a wonderful way to end a short break....even makes me feel better about recent results! When we got back - katja stunk of garlic kebab and was conspicuous in her 'kuyt' shirt - Mum guessed what had happened 'We're in St malo in Autumn, for God's sake - how did you find Liverpool fans here?' They shall never understand, eh?
