woolybanana Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Tragic. Isolation and booze, I guess. There is at least one couple round here who could go that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Did you read the 'Readers Comments', I liked the one that implied that its nice to hear about a crime that was no perpetrated by somebody other than a Muslim or a Moroccan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceni Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 So what is the punishment (if any) for a DIY cremation and a home burial? In these difficult financial times all money saving options must be considered.Perhaps the mods should move this thread to Money Saving Expat?John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chancer Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Having read the trip advisor reports I think the daily mail played down the conditions at the chateau.http://www.tripadvisor.fr/ShowUserReviews-g196527-d621586-r6024703-Chateau_de_Fretay-Fougeres_Ille_et_Vilaine_Brittany.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Don't let Christine A read that, she'll be wondering what happened to the animals (as I am.)If the end weren't so tragic some of those reviews would be funny. Why people insist on staying on in a place where they are clearly so unhappy is beyond me, and is - of course - much discussed here. It should be an object lesson to anybody who carries on in a place which clearly doesn't suit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Perhaps they had nowhere else to go, and didnt see the failings in what they had. A dream gone bust and drowned in booze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
