A perfect Sunday

Oh joy, a blue sky, a lovely Vide Grenier close by and an afternoon of long awaited gardening a great Sunday in Loire Atlantique do make.

Another day in Nantes

Now that the evenings are drawing out, it’s easy to drive to Nantes for a lovely long day out (if like us you don’t like driving in the dark that is). So on the 23rd March we decided it was an excellent time to change some trousers bought in Nantes’ C&A and take in a [...]

All’s well that ends well

My heart sank to my boots when a certain carte gris went AWAL and couldn’t be found, especially as the control technique was due before the end of the month. I have to admit to expecting miles of bureaucracy and red tape so symptomatic of the French civil service especially when I found

Great to be back home

If home is where the heart is, mine is firmly in Loire Atlantique although perhaps it should be in Poland as that’s my ‘mother country’. I have just returned from a quick trip there via the UK to sort out some family issues and

Happy New Year to all

A good start to 2013 all in all, can’t think of a better place to be than in Loire Atlantique. Even on the dreariest day there something to do. The weather hasn’t been conducive to long country or canal walks as the rain has left us up to our ears in mud, but [...]

Wonderful day in Nantes

Every year at the end of August, beginning of September Nantes plays host to a fantastic music festival and we always try to go. We didn’t manage it last year but made up for it in 2012, the event is held along the river Erdre which flows into the Loire in Nantes and is [...]

Summer in Guémené Update

It has been too long since I last wrote a blog but summer is always so busy in Loire Atlantique, not just our high season but in terms of events and places to visit. This year the highlights had to have been the Medieval festival in Grand Fougeray which while not technically in Loire Atlantique, [...]
