I pay my mole catcher with wine. He doesn't actually drink anymore himself,

Coteaux du Layon or Muscat de Beaumes de Venise. It's a great deal for
me, he's a very talented fellow with the old trap!
Emery how far are you from me (en France)
If it's the mole catcher you covet, sorry.
Too far. We're near Argentan in the
Orne, maybe 250 miles from you.
Anyway, he is slowing down. Had a heart attack that worried us all, but he actually
seems better for it (no doubt now on the proper medication) and insists on continuing
the moley duties. He was postman for the village his whole life -- his family had the
little grocery/post, now long gone -- so he's great for a natter about the youthful
indiscretions of the town council.
Finding a good mole catcher is difficult these days.
