Just a quick update so you don't thing I have gone AWOL.Had a great day out today at another chateau. Didn't think there was any in this area, but Alan found one called RocheFoucauld. Very interesting and a nice village too. Had the best meal out so far in the chateau restaurant. At long last. Some lovely prawns in champagne and saffron sauce. Yum, yum....
As to reaction of the French, locally, to football, you wouldn't know that there was a world cup on..... Haven't heard a whistle so far. Do they know it is on?
Found a great walk locally, just about an hour or so, if you don't want to do the 4 1/2 hours and it si lovely. You walk along the river and cross little islands. Really picturesque. Wish I could paint.
Nothing further of interest to report. Am getting into the pace of life of the village. there is definitely more life to it than Longue. Went out yesterday between matches to see what was going on in town and one of the 3 cafes/bar was open, there were about 4 English people sitting there, one of the pizzerias was open and there is a kebab van that sets up in the square at weekends... Neill would enjoy that.....
Oh, there were a few people walking around too...
