Hello!
Sunshine, blue skies, warm days with prospect of lunch
outside and that first barbecue. It’s
also a time when we gather together our energy, come out of hibernation and
start new things, new projects and new challenges. Here’s one…
 |
| Chateau Teyssier |
Chateau Teyssier is looking for a Junior Office
Assistant. Ideally it would be an Anglo-Saxon young person who is
bi-lingual in French and English to help with admin, answer the phone and also
to run the social media pages – FaceBook, Twitter and mailing lists. If
this is the challenge you’re looking for then send CVs and queries to Lyn at lyn@maltus.com
Whatever other new challenges and activities you get up to
this week in the Gironde and Dordogne region, have a great week.
Best wishes,
Helen
Week 11 2014
Monday 10 March
10 March 14h15 ; 12 Years a Slave is showing in VO
(Original Version English) at the Grandecran in Libourne.
Based on an
incredible true story of one man's fight for survival and freedom. In the pre-Civil
War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor),
a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery.
Facing cruelty (personified by a malevolent slave owner, portrayed by Michael Fassbender),
as well as unexpected kindnesses, Solomon struggles not only to stay alive, but
to retain his dignity. In the twelfth year of his unforgettable odyssey,
Solomon's chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) will
forever alter his life.
10 March 14h15 & 20H15: The Grande Budapest Hotel is showing in VO at the Grandecran in
Libourne.
Grand Budapest Hotel recounts the adventures of Gustave H, a
legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero
Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves
the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for
an enormous family fortune -- all against the back-drop of a suddenly and
dramatically changing Continent. Starring Ralph Fiennes, F.Murray Abraham and
Edward Norton
10 March 20h15 : August : Osage County is showing in
VO at the Grandecran in Libourne.

Tuesday 11 March
Pease note the change of time for Tuesday 11th March at 3.30pm next to
the church in St.Méard de Gurçon.
This also means I will not be able to come to Castillon la Bataille or St.Foy le Grande this week so if you wish to order from these directions please let me know and I will make other arrangements directly with you.
There is the usual choice of products which you can choose from our website www.franklinfarm.fr. Do not hesitate to ask me if you would like a special joint of lamb prepared for a celebration for example a stuffed, rolled leg or shoulder of lamb.
If anyone would like something different this month I can prepare:
Herb and onion lamb-burgers
Spicy Morroccan meatballs
Garlic and smoked paprika pork sausages (continental style ie: no rusk)
Italian spiced pork sausages (also no rusk)
If you would like me to prepare something different please let me know as soon as possible.
Hope to see you soon don't forget the change of time.
