Fresh Fields

Settling in after the flurry of activity involved in our move to France we started to take stock of our local community discovering almost immediately that there were two distinct groups in the area, the French and the British.

Visitors, entertained by our accounts, suggested that our experiences merited publication. This book is the result, introducing you initially to situations which often seemed to us ‘stranger than fiction’.
