It was this cry of anguish that Man Dèdette, Ti-Sonson's wife-in-law, uttered when she looked at the price of this year's cruises on her iPhone 6.
Hon-hon-hon! You want to tell me that I will have to pay 350 euros for a short week aboard the Costa-Machin? Eh ? We are already suffering the Békés and the wickedly high prices of flour-France, apples-France, onions-France and cherries-France and here on the cruise ships, they are trying to purge us like lemons-France! You should know: when the French worker, or finally the guy from Montauban or Carcassonne, decides to go on vacation to the Côte d'Azur or ski in Courchevel, do we purge his wallet like that? No !
We are Fouançais or we are not, damn!
This difference in treatment cannot continue. Already we are dying of hunger every day (almost like in Gaza or certain regions of Ethiopia), we still cannot accept being deprived of a little wouspel on a luxury ship! In addition, every time it docks on one or other of the islands surrounding us, everyone (taxi drivers, junk shops, restaurateurs, etc.) will try to suck out our last money, convinced that they are that we are rolling in gold. Apparently they've never heard of our revolution against the high cost of living!
“But why do you bother wanting to go on cruises?” protests Zéphirine, Man Dèdette’s eldest daughter. “There are Christmas carols almost every evening until December 24, well, good God! Plus, they're not too expensive: between 40 and 50 euros, yes, I've already made three myself…”.
