Dormouse Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 The title says it all really - while we are keen and eager to meet and mingle with our French neighbours, I wonder if there are any LF Forum readers in the 42 area who might be up for a meet & mingle too?

Tourangelle Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Absolutely, Rhone-alpes is in south eastern France. I am in 69, Rhone. Can I just mention a personal gripe. People always put the number, not the name of the department. I don't personally know all of the numbers, I am sure I am not the only one. Wouldn't it be better to put the name, and perhaps the number too. As far as I am concerned, where I live, lots of people pass through, so there are lots of numbers, I just looked up 42 when I saw this post and was surprised to find it was St Etienne.

Tourangelle Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 no it's me, I think, I just live in my little Lyon bubble most of the time, and we don't have a car and tend to go further afield for breaks, so although I might have spotted I was in 42 on the one trip I made to St Etienne, it doesn't stick in my mind. But in a more general sense, it is things like "does anybody know of an accountant in 24" that irritate me a bit. To the original poster whose thread I am not going to hijack (!)there is an English language magazine called something like les anglophones, that is specific to the Rhone alpes area and that you can get free from the consulate in Lyon, should you come through here. The consulate is on rue Childebert, about 5 minutes walk from place Bellecour. People advertise in it and there are various associations mentioned.

Dormouse Posted November 11, 2005 Author Share Posted November 11, 2005 Thank you! We are here - hoorah! Am trying to find some TEFL work, not very successfully, but if I make it Lyon I'll be sure to hunt out the magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
