J’enregistre cet épisode à la maison. Je suis seule. C’est très étrange après deux mois de vacances. Eh oui, depuis hier, les filles sont retournées au lycée ou au collège.
Je commence cet épisode par des félicitations à tous ceux qui m’ont envoyé la réponse à la dernière devinette. Il s’agissait bien du Moulin Rouge ! Je vous explique en détail pourquoi sur le blog du podcast.
Bien sûr, nous terminons l’été avec une nouvelle devinette. Vous reconnaitrez la voix de Claire Gautrot, notre amie violiste, dans le rôle de la mystérieuse Parisienne. Un grand merci à Claire de s’être prêtée au jeu de la devinette.
