Conville & Walsh

Cinq à Sept
Is the magic time between five and seven pm (as the phrase denotes) when lovers meet, and was invented by Parisians. Moral concerns aside by leaving work a little early you will still have enough time to make your assignation and then get home in order to shower, change and sit down to supper with your respective partners. You will discover too that afternoon sex has its own particular pleasures and rewards.
