With only days before I, and an intrepid group of pork crusaders, were due to set off to Trie-sur-Baise for La Pourcailhade, or La fete du cocoon, or similar, second thoughts are presenting themselves. My wonderful consultant in the region, did in fact suggest that pig festivals in general are popular all over France. A sign a few miles from Dad's place advertises one such festival very close to where he lives. Evidently the black arced pig, or cul noir, is big business in the Correze area and commands a certain degree of respect.
With any luck the cul noir festival will be taking place when we are in the area.
I never though I would be praying for locally accessible pigs with black arses.
