Living up to a Name

It's an odd thing, but names can sometimes be appropriate beyond all imagining. Take for example, the greedy and incompetent erstwhile Chief Exec of RBS, currently grabbing his distended pension as hard as he can go. His name? "good win". Come to think of it, Royal Bank itself is another example; it's certainly in a right royal mess.

Be that as it might, our company name is Libre Livre, which is French - well, loosely. As a matter of fact, the name was chosen to indicate that our range of notebooks and albums have free, blank, open pages, so customers can use them however they choose.

Picking up on the French theme - and keen readers of this blog may have stumbled on our sister site "Lyons La Foret, A Small Town in Normandy" - we have decided it's high time to brush up our French. A charming lady is due to visit our workshop this morning for my first hour's lesson, must dash...

Au revoir
