Hi Welcome to SFN I'M not Commercially active in France but have had a long term affaire with this region.......................:-)

Hi Barbera

There are a few shops in Veules but if you mean the very nice ""gifty/clothes" shop near the church then as far as I know the shop was open all Summer ..... I'm pretty sure it's open all year round.  Veules is our favorite spot (especially in winter when things are a bit quieter) - our grand-daughter was building sandcastles on the beach there, last week.

Regards

Ian

As for my guitar-playing, I do my best :)

To paraphrase the ditty, maybe it's because I'm not a Londoner, but I've always struggled with the rose-tinted view of 'real east-end gangsters' - for me a psychotic murderer is just that, even if good-old Babs Windsor says they loved their mums.  As for the current crop of baddies in the UK, I think that blaming border controllers is slightly overlooking a huge, nationwide socio-economic malaise.

Hi Barbara

I am actually a professional cook and the only reason that I asked for help re ready meals is that I have been ill and unable to cook. As they are so poor in France, I felt it would be useful to see if anyone had found anything worth putting in my freezer or store cupboard.

I am now taking medication, my awful cold turnerd into a chest infection, and you will be pleased to hear that we are having, sausage, pumpkin and sage casserole for lunch.

Whereabouts do you live?
