Week 29 2023

 Hello!

The fireworks in Castillon didn't disappoint! We had a great view from La Plage.

Hope you managed to find some 14 July fireworks near you.  It's the village festivities all around, so you should find some somewhere.

It's also the opening weekend for the Battle of Castillon.  If you haven't been yet, then why not?  It's a great evening out.  I never cease to be amazed that little Castillon has such a big event.

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

Best wishes,

Helen

Coming up...

And finally...

Still being plagued by mosquitoes?  Here's an indoor solution...

A dribble of essential oils onto a heart or flower, hung on the bedpost will diffuse into the air and keep those mosquitoes away.  It's also a skin frindly essentail oil, so I always massage it into my skin before heading out in the evening.  Find it at the boutique at Arts Typiques in Sauveterre.
