letrangere Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 For fear of sounding too much like a candidate for the Order of the Brown Nose award, I would like to go on record as saying it's a really good read this month. Articles about the D Day landings, George Sand, the beautiful Aveyron, a marvellous piece on French radio (thank you so much, Ms. Editor, certainly one to cut out and keep) and a great article debunking several common myths on living in France. I especially liked "My French is pretty rusty but I'll pick it up just by living there" or how about "We'll earn our living by renting out a couple of rooms or gites". Even the advertising pages have been tidied up. Well done.Only disappointment was the formal announcement of the departure of Mark Elliott but why did this not come as too much of a surprise?Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Did you have a feeling of deja vue with that article about the common myths, a bit like reading the forum !For a moment I wondered if Punch had been filling the odd hour writing 'How to find a builder'?Gayhttp://www.quimperclub.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washy Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Well I wish I had a copy of the June issue to make a valid comment.......I see I am not the only one to have been missed off the subscriptions list this month, seems to have been a glitch in the system. July copy arrived today! Some consolation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
