It&#8217;s been quite some time since I posted a photo of the Puy.<\/p>\n<p>So what was I doing out at St Priest? The answer is that as there was no local football at all this week I had to cast the net rather wide, and I ended up at St Priest. To my surprise, the 1st XI of St Priest don&#8217;t play in local football but in regional football. That&#8217;s about 3 levels higher up the pyramid than Pionsat&#8217;s 1st XI. Anyway, they were playing in the Cup against a team from down south somewhere and so I wandered over there to watch.<br \/>\n<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>The match wasn&#8217;t as good as I was expecting. St Priest were deservedly beaten by a better team, even if the opponents didn&#8217;t have much idea in the final third of the field. St Priest were rather lacking all round although they had their chance &#8211; hitting the bar and the post and a couple of their forwards taking one step too many with the ball, or trying to do the difficult thing when the simpler thing would have been much more appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>After that I went round to Liz and Terry&#8217;s to drop off some stuff, and I was treated to tea which was very nice. And not just tea, but a doggy bag too &#8211; and home-made hot cross buns. Aren&#8217;t I the lucky one?<\/p>\n<p>And this morning? Well, to be honest, 11:15. Say no more.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-252 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='252' data-nonce='735c0713c9' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-252 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-252 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='252' data-nonce='735c0713c9' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-252 unlc'>-3<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-252 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; there was a really good view of the Puy-de-D\u00f4me in the distance from the top of the brow of a hill near St Priest.
