Week 43 2025

 Hello!

This weekend is the Fete de la Saint Martin in Flaujagues.

 

A meal and live entertainment on Saturday, and a brocante on Sunday.  No wind or rain is forecast for Sunday, so head over to the brocante and pick up a bargain.

Whatever you do in the Dordogne and Gironde regions, have a lovely time.

Best wishes,

Helen

Week 42 2025

 Hello!

They were up fixing something on the roof of the church in Sauvetere and took a photo of the square, and it reminded me of a photo I found a few years ago, taken from almost the same spot.

 

 I love looking at old photos of places I know.

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

Best wishes,

I made a pottery wheel from an old sewing machine!  No electricity needed, just pedal power.

 

Many thanks to my students who helped me build it.
