I scooped it up with a teaspoon

Nightly on the edge of 113, 3 individuals with bags and rope took over the farm, “I scooped it up with a teaspoon” says Laurie Flaman, Pascal’s daughter. Everything is gone: 14 sheep, 3 geese with their goslings, all the equipment necessary for working her land. €12,000 not covered by insurance.

A life on land. “He is always in his garden, from morning to evening” – a beautiful person ? – “yes, he does everything to do things well“. Complaint filed, investigation opened (which promises to be very complicated). In his disarray, the little ladybug Bleue de Bouillargues has friends, like the imperator’s pastry chef who came to support him that morning.

After considering closure but with your support he will continue, “Overwhelmed, no doubt, but the call of the field is too strong, so you continue” and with a smile “I don’t even have a twelve key anymore (for large equipment maintenance) but too bad, little by little“. On his land, his bandana screwed on the head Pascal Flaman still standing but May 28 with the blue ladybug will remain engraved: “To be robbed like that, when you’re so passionate, it’s hard!
