Le retour de Martin Guerre

We watched the film this evening. I saw it a long time ago but surprisingly had no recollection of how it ended. I feel inspired to find out more about the story. Interesting that the judge should find the events compelling enough to record them. I expect that the real events were not as dramatic as the film version. Did the real Martin Guerre really turn up just as the case was about to be dismissed? And why did he come back anyway? Just to prove his identity? Was he searched for by his uncle?

I don't know how I'll get on with the mobile. It's an ancient Ericsson a1018 which I've got hooked up to a D127 infra-red modem and my old Psion 5. Unfortunately, the phone is very temperamental and the back-up battery on the Psion has gone - suspiciously quickly.
We shall see if this retro-technology improves my blogging rate. I suspect not.

Back on mobile!

Just got my Psion and old Ericsson + D127 to work again!
