This is my weblog and is a part of my intellectual property. My opinions, both positive and negative, attitudes and recommendations expressed here are included to stimulate discussion and, hopefully, to illuminate in some small way the pleasures and pitfalls of living, working, cooking, eating, drinking and wandering in France. These opinions, attitudes and recommendations will undoubtedly evolve as my understanding of France evolves.


The information and suggestions in this weblog should be taken on face value with no warranties implied or expressed and no rights conferred.


I am certain that from time to time my opinions will annoy or disquiet you and I encourage you to challenge them in the comments section of each blog entry however I reserve the right to delete any and all inappropriate comments at my sole discretion - and this goes double for bad grammar and inadequate spelling!
