Sunday 19th October - 90% chance of rain

 The forecast was correct.

I decided to 'zone out' for another day. BB kindly walked round to our corner shop, only a few minutes away, which has a COOK freezer, selling posh frozen meals, and came back with a lamb moussaka. He got there and back in between one bout of rain and the next. We're pretending we've gone out for lunch; I suppose, in a way, we have...

So we're having a restaurant quality meal in the peace and quiet and comfort of our home. 

Music!

It's a 'scrolling through YouTube' sort of day, and this is too good not to share. 

Rameau Les Sauvages les Indes Gallantes 

This was a light-hearted 'heroic opera' composed by Rameau in the 1780s, consisting of four Entrées each telling a different love story, all with a 'happily ever after' ending.

This is the final song, a ceremony of peace;

Entrée IV – Les sauvages (The Savages)

edit

Scene: The stage shows a grove in a forest in America, on the borders of the French and Spanish colonies, where the ceremony of the Peace Pipe is about to be celebrated

Adario, a Native American, is in love with Zima, daughter of a native chief, but he fears the rivalry of the Spaniard Don Alvar and the Frenchman Damon. The Europeans plead with Zima for her love, but she says Damon is too fickle and Alvar is too jealous; she prefers the natural love shown by Adario and the couple vow to marry. The act ends with the Europeans joining the natives in the ceremony of peace (Chorus: Forêts paisibles)

I got all this information from Wikipedia. 

Hope you too had a peaceful Sunday, or at any rate the kind of Sunday you wanted or needed.
