Week 10 2012

Hello!
The beginning of March, and everything and everyone is starting to come out of hibernation!  There are things coming up in future months, so I've made some additional pages, you can find them on the right of the page.  That way you can start to plan ahead.

If you haven’t seen the film The Artist it’s still showing, and so mesmerising, that one dear friend couldn’t remember if it was in black and white or colour!! (you know who you are…!)

Reports on the new Leclerc have been filtering back – the most common adjective used has been BIG…

This Wednesday is International Women’s Day, and when I lived in Slovakia all the men gave women a single flower – not just to a significant other woman, but to lots of women.  Do you think it might catch on here?

I forgot to mention last week that hornet traps must be taken down by the beginning of May, otherwise they will trap the good insects in our gardens, and anyway, by then the queens will have started their colonies.

One last thing, Lyn Maltus is looking for someone who would be interested in going to their Chateau for a couple of days to type visiting cards onto their computer system.  They would be paid the hourly SMIC rate (9.22€ brut).  If you are interested please contact her on 05 57 84 64 22.  She says that they have very good coffee in the office too!

Have a good week,

Best wishes,

Helen
