Cotignac Lunch with Talk

This was the fourth year we have held an event at Notre Dame de Grâces with Patrick Verlinden giving a short talk, this time on British sports personalities competing and/or living in the Var. He chose four categories: car rallies and racing, football, tennis and cycling. The numbers were much lower than previously, probably because of the topic but we benefited from having a number of people who had been invited by our hosts. It was good to have a mix of English and French, something of a new initiative that would be good to achieve again. There were many compliments on the 4 course meal and the wine. The weather was sunny and the ample apéro was served in the grounds.

This brings me onto the matter of burning of vegetation. Our Mairie states that no burning can take place at any time of the year due to a Prefectural orde r. Howeve r, despite this, immediately adjacent communes permit burning. Furthermore the Mairie collects vegetable material at the déchetterie and then burns it! If residents are required to clear land how can this be facilitated without burning of the cleared material? Finally, following my comment last month about speed limits, I have now read that this is being already watered down as it is left to the local Prefects to decide if their roads are to have the reduced limit. It seems that perhaps masterful procrastination is the order of the day! 4 MEMBERS’ GROUPS Visit of the Prince Of Wales The Azur Photography Group Having made contact with the After our visit to Sillans-la-Cascade in April, when British Embassy in Paris last year we photographed the falls, we were privileged to regarding Brexit, the Committee have another visit from John and Tessa Wyatt with of the BAV was delighted and us to critique our photos. honoured to be invited to a John was the Director of reception at Villa Masséna in Nice Photography for the BBC and on the evening of 7 May in the his advice has always been pr e s e nc e of The ir R o y al invaluable.
