Hello!
It’s only a few weeks away until the Battle of Castillon
re-opens for the new season. Rehearsals are underway and this year there have
been great changes. Under a new
Association, the Battle has been given a facelift. Check out the office next to the Mairie in
Castillon (now merged with the Tourist Office)
Tickets are available from the Office, or on the internet. http://www.batailledecastillon.com/
The first show is on 15th July, continuing each weekend until 20
August. There is only one act now, with
a performance length of 90 minutes.
To see more watch the clip from TF1,http://www.tv7.com/bonjour-bonsoir/bonjour-bonsoir-a-la-bataille-de-castillon_x4i0d1n.php

Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great week.
Best wishes,
Helen

to get to grips with the basics? Or even need a little help with perfecting
your grammar. Catherine is lovely. Drop her a line, or give her a call.
