Are there any ex-pats out there who can point us in the right direction. We are considering moving to the St Astier/Neuvic area when hubby retires at the end of the year and are trying to gather as much information as possible about the area in general, good immobiliers (on the internet if poss), shopping, medical services. social events, language (essential our French is definitely 'petite francais' but we are trying!!)  Also tourist information on this specific area.  There is loads of info in the Dordogne and Perigueux but I can't find much about this area.  What is it like to live there? Any information would be much appreciated, many thanks (I hope) Janet
