Hi , yes i too live in a small rural village ,probably much quieter than most in fact apart from the odd lotto night etc ! i take your point that this may actually be an advantage that i hadnt considered compared to a busy city or large town full of people. Euro

you are definitely barking up the wrong tree ! this was specifically meant for the guy suggesting i am a reincarnation or a tad gay. Euro

in one of my earlier responces i explained why i used the term "totty " perhaps you didnt read that ? it seems to me you are trying to play and referee the game at the same time which isnt normal. within any post on a forum there will be varying points of view which is great , what i dont accept is being told i am "shallow" for using a word that others wouldnt have used. what i would also point out is the original post attracted a much higher number of views and responces than most of the posts on this section of the forum - so the word "totty " must be interesting to some. Euro - still smiling x

of course i agree everyone is entitled to a point of view ! and my point of view is that the mods were overly negative about something they couldnt view within its context - why should i not make that view public ? Euro blank lines deleted by a mod (is this too negative?[Www] [:D])

i have started a post about the negativity of the moderators. euro

interesting question i have lived in SW France for about 5 yrs now and have regularly travelled to Spain for a holiday (Catalonia) my observations are :- food is as good & typically lower priced than France which was a pleasant surprise people are much more friendly than the French ( no major surprise ) people are more welcoming towards the Brits than the French (ditto) wine is good ! climate is great ! And the Spanish make a point of stopping there cars promptly at pedestrian crossings which i find the french do not ,which is rather annoying when you are with small kiddies. But the property is a little cher ! Euro

i note that to date there have been 75 responces to this post mostly interesting / helpful / humerous etc & would like to thank you all. however 2 of the posts could be described as unnessesarily picky about the word " totty " interestingly both of these negative posts were written by moderaters why are you so out of step with everyone else ? is it political correctness gone mad? or cant you just enjoy a bit of fun ? maybe the power is too much to handle X Euro

AVF ? i will be sure to remember the language issues ! although on balance would prefer a Brit friend / very good friend euro

Hi Russethouse - i decided to write the word " totty " to make my post eyecatching and therefore get some suitable responces, certainly not to annoy any of the girls on the forum. Euro .

now that i am single i am becoming a little disapointed with the lack of attractive members of the opposite sex - in my case female. where are they all ? i live in SW near Villenueve 47 surrounded by old boys driving even older tractors or auld wifies in aprons dragging shopping baskets full of stuff around - so where are all the 30 ish somethings hiding ?????? presumably France has single people or seperated / divorced people just like the UK but where ? ideas please or real life experiences even better - preferably local thanks Euro

I am a single british guy living in the South West with a very low key social life and would like to know how other single people make new friends etc. thanks in advance for any help. euro

hiring bikes could present a few hassles ie enough of the right size and type for your group - plus if they are paying would complain about any little thing ! what do you do if the chain snaps and they are miles away ? go and pick them up ? i have half a dozen or so - courtesy bikes Free of charge & they get used a bit ,clients like the freedom to help themselves and its just a little extra thing that they maybe didnt expect. but to buy new bikes etc ????? i know i wouldnt want the hassle for what little return you could get.

Good evening all , i have a gite complex - long established - earns well , reliable bookings etc and i actually enjoy the flexibility & seasonality of the work so am considering buying another one ! yes i am in full control of my faculties. preferable location would be the SW as then i could manage them both and even maybe rent my owners accomodation for extra income , whilst i live in the new one and focus on developing the business etc. all ideas welcome - especially from those who have done this already or researched it. And of course those thinking of selling later this year. thanks Euro

floculant is for "suspended particles" in the water - usually throughout the pool in milky cloudy fashion - sounds like you have some stubborn algae which will be banished by regualr vigourous brushing / chlorine /anti algue products.

there are many areas of 47 which are nicer that this part - it is close to Agen which is driving up prices within the local french market - therefore compared to other areas you are paying a premium for somethging which may not apply to you - being able to work in the town of Agen which is the regional capital if you will. i would suggest a bit further north near or around Villeneuve or even further north toward bergerac had 5 yrs here and its great !
