But rather something I have a hankering to throw into the cake hole. Has anybody ever had Calvados? I have a hankering to try several spirits and wines referred to in the Inspector Maigret books as among his favourite tipples, or more probably of his creator Georges Simenon. I was going to say before I kick the bucket, which it has just today dawned on me is what they mean by a bucket list. I learn most things on a need to know basis.
It's going to mean going through all the books again, which I hope I still have, and many of the wines in particular would be regional produce of 1940s France and probably not obtainable, just as some of our own varieties are no longer on the market. But the spirits should be OK
