Parisians & the art of turning any situation into café experience

Table with a Bollard, please....

BOLLARD (Traditional definition: “A bollard is a sturdy, short vertical post used primarily to control road traffic and protect pedestrians from vehicle collisions” (From the web)BOLLARD

(Parisian Definition): “An obnoxious object preventing restaurants from plying their trade”

To quote Audrey Hepburn: “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says ‘I’m possible!” Many Parisians would agree….
