June 8th, 2011 by mapi

I like these two photos, Alphonse in a very limited edition and these short pants that are so perfect. I must try them on Augustin. Otherwise, there is some work to do, the Playtime exhibition catalog to make with the pictures of the latest prototypes (that is TOMORROW dammit !!!!), the winter production to check [...]
