Watch this space.

Latest News on the New Airport...
After years of delay... a 2 year flurry of activity that saw the runway built and then.... nothing for months, there has been new developments at the Brive-Souillac Airport. After great deliberation by the Syndicate developing the site, they have announced.... they are changing the name to Aéroport de Brive - Vallée de la Dordogne. That's it folks. Nothing else to report!

Clocks Change Early This Year

Big Ben, London

Don't Get Caught Out

So, the last day of October this year is a Saturday. Now, normally, we change our clocks the Sunday of this weekend, but, as we have pointed out, there is no Sunday this weekend. Well, there is, but it is in November. So those who decide such things have decided to change the clocks the weekend before we normally do.

Which is what we are trying to tell you...

Clocks go back one hour at 02h.00
Sunday 25th October

Less than a kilo of plutonium does this!

The good thing about a blog is...
You can have a bit of a rant about things. Especially when someone, or some "body" or other, does something stupid. Like those responsible for "misplacing" 22 kilos of plutonium. Yep that's right, 22 kilos of the stuff that makes the big in the bang of a nuclear bomb. Ubelievable? Nope, it happened right here in France... for more info visit our blog by clicking this link.

Autumn Fête

It's the St. Céré Autumn Fête this Sunday, 25th October. Look out for hot roast chestnuts, scrummy, fresh pressed apple juice and a troupe of traditional folk dancers to wonder at! Place de la République.

 


Cornac for Sale

Or rather some of the contents of those bulging greniers. Yes, it is the annual Cornac Vide-Grenier on Sunday 25th October. Get there early enough to grab some bargains, but not too early that you cannot enjoy a refreshing beer at the buvette!. Then, suitably refreshed, head for the St. Céré Autumn Féte. See above.

Out and About

 

New Builds

The onward march of new builds in and around St. Céré seems not to have diminished, in spite of the fact that France is still in recession. Above is the start of a new urbanisation right on the edge of town, on the Leyme Road.

Where is everyone coming from? Where do they work? We tackled builders merchants, Chausson, as we reasoned that if anyone knew - they would. "Who are these incomers to St. Céré - where are they coming from?", we asked. "From everywhere", was the reply. "But what do they do? Where do they work?". The reply was a shrug!
