Week 6 2018

Hello!

Just when we thought that spring was around the corner, we get snow and ice!  I still have some brave little flowers popping their heads up in the garden.

Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great time.  Please don't forget to let me know if there's anything coming up in your neighbourhood - I'll add it in if I can - for free!

Best wishes,
Helen
