More news from PF
With the new version of Vivre a Pierrefeu ready to download, here are the headlines from this quarter's gripping edition:- A recipe for tasty - and seasonally - Pets de Nonnes - or Nun's Farts (seriously!)
- Details of new businesses opening in the village, including no fewer than two manicurists
- News of a competition of Pierrefeu photos, being run by the tourist board. If you're passing through over the Summer, apply here. Who knows? By the time you click on this link, I might even have done the long-overdue English translation of the site...
- Photos of various festive events, including the best-decorated house and Santa Claus visiting the village
- Quite useful information about the local gendarmerie's initiative 'Operation Peaceful Holidays' where you can register when you're away and they'll keep an eye on your house. Possibly one for folk like me
We own a cabanon in Serre Menu on the route of the suggested bypass. We also look forward to the new road as we access our house by the Real Martin laneway which has on many occasions been flooded. We do realise that the lorries will be passing very close to us and that we will not have the tranquility that has endeared us to the place since we bought it in 2003, but a road will mean that we will have safe and easy access. We welcome any information that we can get about Pierrefeu and do read your updates. Thank you.
