It must be a Charentaise thing… our maire speaks good English and we get on with him very well - chatting in a mix of English and (our) poor French which he tolerates.

Maybe the ideal solution would be to move house! Either to where Stella or Graham are seems perfect, I think I will start a thread for ‘Friendly Maries’

I might be asked for my “seal of approval” before you’re allowed over the border…

Our Mairie always assumes I must know someone, just 'cos they’re British…

Go for it.
The worst they will say is why are you asking us when you don’t live on our commune.
Not Marie (blame autocorrect) Em eh eye ar eye ee

Not sure that we’re closer than you think Stella, but I promise no stalking…
