lol!!
us market people do not 'take the rest of the month of'
I wish!!!!
You'll find most traders will travel around to various monthly markets and will probably have a regular pitch at a few weekly ones too!
I don't know the markets in your region, but there is a huge market at Roulliac the 27th of the month.
As for bijoux, it depends what you're looking for, most markets seem to sell the cheap baubly stuff. If you're looking for something special, you may be better with craft / Artisanart markets.
Just keep looking in your local papers for dates.
Or try the Islands July / August. There are fab markets in almost all the towns every morning.
St Denis and Domino are particularly lovely morning markets.
there's a big one in Ars (no pun intended!!!)
happy shopping!

now the poor guitarist is in hospital.
The last remaining Monkey will play a solo set. Still worth going to see as he's fab!
-
lol!!
they're quite chilled in a rocky way, they do a fab cover of a Bill Withers track - but I can't remember the name of it.
It's possibly an accoustic set this friday as the Bassist is manacled to a hospital bed and he dosen't think he'll be allowed out to play!!!!
-
The funky monkeys play a mixture of Funk and rock. Very cool!
NOT Irish music, I probably should have started a new thread[:$]

These guys are great!
I'll confirm the gig later in the week as there are occassional last minute band changes.
If anyone is interested in a regular evening accoustic jamming session at this bar, you may want to come along and have a chat, there's a few musicians keen to start something up here!

[quote user="ErnieY"]If it's really important to you might think about temporarily removing all the caravanny bits which wouldn't comply and try your luck with it just as a VW van [;-)][/quote]
Don't do this, you'll need to replace camping area with original seats / seatbelts and the Carte gris will be for a van, not a camping car.
Veritas is the official body who issues the camping car certificate, 215€. some departments are easier than others. I had to remove all my gas appliances in dept. 79, but other people have been luckier.
all the best!!

[:D]Sorry for the delay - I've been a little pre-occupied this last week!!!!
thanks for the promotion too!!!!
parking still available at La Breche... Don't forget the freebies over the river!!
AND wrap up warm!!!

Starts next wednesday 12th December - 24th December.
Rue Victor Hugo (just next to 'Serpent' road!!!!)
you'll find the farmers produce 'chalets' : ostriche products from the famous farm at Couhe, esgargots, miel, pineau, wines, organic chutney from Celles sur Belles (highly recommended!!!)
...and the artists, Funky, eyecatching pottery from La Rochelle babe, Gail; handmade leather handbags to die for, unique glasswork from Chauney, Metalwork, handcrafted jewellery - fantasie and silver, ceramics....etc....etc... all members of the Metiers d'Art.
the commercant chalets are near place de la Breche, next to the temporary ice rink.
opening times for the chalets are 10am - 7pm everyday, the Marche nocturne is saturday 15th until 9pm ( weather permitting) There will be a visit from Santa at the night market too.
Don't miss the 'Vin chaud' chalet - always popular!!!
Anyone new to the region, please come and experience this lovely underestimated town.!!!! There are lots of lovely pedestrianised streets with gorgeous little boutiques and some great cafes!
If you're still struggling with your French - don't worry, I'll point you in the right direction! Lots of the market people speak a little English if you ask nicely!!!!! Just ask for Samanta l'Anglaise!!!(I'll be there in my chalet!)
There are a few free car parks near the Donjon (cross the river - you'll see the signs! - just a short walk to rue victor hugo!)
Hope to see you there!
