Week 21 2016



Hello!


It’s not often that you hear the thwack of leather on willow in this part of the world, but last weekend the South West of France cricketers hosted the Lord’s Taveners in Eymet. A beautiful spring day, blue skies, fluffy white clouds and a glass of wine… Oh, and the local team won!  Who needs ex-England players after all! To read the full report go here

Coming up next weekend is the Epicurials  in Bordeaux.  Taking Pop-up restaurants to the next level, Michelin rated chefs set up stalls in the centre of Bordeaux.  Find out more here
 
Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great time.

Best wishes,
Helen
