Week 17 2023

 Hello!

Next week we launch in to May, the month of jour ferie (bank holidays). The 1st May celebrates May Day, also known as La Fête du travail, the only day when employees should legally be given a paid day off work.  So watch out, plenty of the local shops and businesses may well be closed.

It's also known as La Fête du Muguet , or the lily of the valley festival, so it's likely that you will see people around and about selling bunches of this sweet smelling flower - incidentally it's one of the ingredients in Chanel No5.

If you want to find out more, this is a fun article.


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