I don't know exactly what was wrong with the BBM, but we gave it every chance. It was just so simple with so little to spark one's interest.

Of course, it's not surprising to read that Roulot was brilliant, at village or any other level. Pernot might not be quite up to those heady standards, but it should at least be pretty damned good.
