A gentle realistic story. I guess most of us can look back on some opportunity missed - but perhaps he'll get together with Rachel again, who knows.
Must complain about Brits buying property in France - most of us buy houses that would otherwise fall down, and my French friends are happy that our British pensions are supporting many rural economies.
Poignant and bittersweet - captures perfectly the sentiments of paths not taken, and the regrets we all have over the one who got away.
