Where in Limousin?  I could recommend you some websites but they are very specific to my area, unlike the sites you mention which cover huge areas and whose properties are often sold anyway.

I'd be interested in helping getting a club started for St Leonard, Bourganeuf, Eymoutiers.  Please PM to make a date.

Wednesday market at Bourganeuf, Creuse sells cheddars, stilton, sage derby, red leicester, shropshire blue.

I like the idea of a gardening club - maybe you could start one?  Otherwise we'd be more than happy to meet up and talk gardens, etc.  We are in a watch this space situation too - have been unable to do anything much with the garden whilst the house is being renovated.  Hope to start planting soon though.  We are near St Leonard de Noblat - 30 mins from St Dizier Leyrenne.

Where is your small hamlet?

You could try the legion.

I started on AOL 8.0 and upograded to 9.0.  I couldn't connect for two days.  It took me ages to work out what was wrong - uninstalled and reinstalled a few times.  I'm not bothered enough to change service provider though.

What can you do?

A friend did - at Limoges CHU abnd thought the service excellent.  I've been in and out of the same hospital this year for other stuff and found the treatment and staff impeccable.  Miles better than UK.
