So after leaving the dealership, we went into our, uh, adventure for this week, a- another fun event.

We went to the town of Gontaud-de-Nogare.

I'm gl- [laughs] I'm so glad you, you, uh, pronounced that because I've probably written down the name of this town four times getting my notes together here, and I forget it the second I've written it down.

What, uh, what is with the name of this village that neither you nor I-

So it, it, it's two villages that merged, I think, back in 1965, but the-

They're so forgettable, these names

But, yeah.

It, it, it, I, m- I have had a really hard time remembering the name of this, of this village as well.

And, you know, I looked up why would that be, and it's ...

It makes sense.

It's because there's nothing that relates to us.

There's no inherent m- meaning, there's no mental imagery, um, there's no logical connection.

It's just two labels.

Yeah, but not, not to say that it wasn't an interesting place to visit either.

Oh, oh, oh.

It's just that the n- name-

Yeah

... is difficult to, uh, to remember.

Right.

But apparently Gontaud Biron, Château Biron, uh, was a very wealthy family in the day, and they're the ones who founded this, this village that dates back to medieval times.

Mm-hmm.

And as per us', you know, during the medieval times, there are tons of wars, tons of destructions, invasions, pillaging.

So this village-

Oh, pillaging.
