Hello!
Ste Foy was alive with horses this weekend. There were all sorts from tiny little Thelwell
ponies, ponies pulling carriages, great big horses and an ethereal albino horse
with ghostly grey eyes (I was mesmerised by that one).
We watched as the blacksmith made and fitted the shoe horses,
we saw little children fearlessly race around on horseback and watched the
carriage rides passing through the streets.
Combined with the Puces de la Bastide it was good to see the
town bustling.

I can’t find much going on this week in the region, and as
always, if you hear of any events or want to share an activity please don’t
hesitate to send me details, they are always most welcome.
Have a great week in the Dordogne and Gironde regions,
Best wishes,
Helen

Fred and Mick,
two old friends, are on vacation in an elegant hotel at the foot of the Alps.
Fred, a composer and conductor, is now retired. Mick, a film director, is still
working. They look with curiosity and tenderness on their children's confused
lives, Mick's enthusiastic young writers, and the other hotel guests. While
Mick scrambles to finish the screenplay for what he imagines will be his last
important film, Fred has no intention of resuming his musical career. But
someone wants at all costs to hear him conduct again. Starring Michael Caine, Harvey Keitel and
Rachel Weisz
