Hello!
What a difference a week makes. The brocantes this Sunday
were held under clear blue skies and a bright shiny sun!
Coming up this week is the Fete de la Music traditionally held
in France on midsummer’s day. It all
began in 1982 when the then Minister of Culture Jack Lang decided to revive the
pagan Festival of St Jean. He invited
musicians from all walks of life to join together and give free concerts. Over 30 years later the event has spread
throughout the world.
There will be a concert near you to enjoy this coming
weekend – have a good time.
Best wishes,
Helen
