While on my way to FlexRex' place, opposite nr. 9 I passed a parked blue Opel Vectra 20i, which had its windows open. Inside there were ... cassettes (see picture) ... Now I know that this was an awfully bad thing to do, but I could not resist the tempation ... I stuck in my arm, and took them ... three of them ...325.

Two of them were cassettes manufactured by an algerian enterprise called Cadic Productions. Both contain easy listening tunes and synthi kitsch versions of popsongs. In the montage you hear part of a version of George Michael's Careless Whisper. On one of the Cadic cassettes it reads: "Mieux on connait les cassettes plus on aime les cassettes" ... (see picture).

Small strand stuck in the shrubbery opposite la maison des Courtillières ...
