Week 11 2018

Hello!

One of the most beautiful sunsets I have seen for a while. Is summer just around the corner?


Please don't hesitate to let me know if there are local activities that you want to share, or if you are holding an event that you want to have listed.  If you send me text, pdf files or jpg files I will add them to the listings. (see the address below) No charge... and tell your friends about the Newsletter, share it with your B&B guests and gite visitors.  It's a resource for all... let's make it work!

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

Best wishes,
Helen
