I was at school with a
Rochelle, who was plumply pleasant and a redhead. We were happy that she was at our school, because a town nearby had a (very good) girls' school called La
Rochelle.
I've got two very good
Michele friends, one here in South
Africa and one actually in
France. I've never met a
Michelle that I've liked nearly as much, and that's affected my opinion. But, I prefer
Michele to
Rochelle.
