		<description><![CDATA[Looking at recent posts on this blog I can see I have been grumbling a bit too much, and not talking about the great reasons for being an expat in France.
So to stop readers thinking I&#8217;m a miserable old fool or that France must be a terrible place to live I thought I&#8217;d be a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There have been various times in the last couple of years when I&#8217;ve complained about customer service in France.
One time it was Europiscine, who fitted a new swimming pool liner for us with an expensive ten year guarantee and then refused to put it right when it immediately developed big wrinkles. Another was Dell, who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eymet is a very pleasant bastide town near Bergerac, worth a visit if you are in the region to explore the 13th century arcaded houses around the main square and to amble along the river.
It&#8217;s not exceptional compared with other similar towns in the Dordogne department, which has many stunning medieval towns and villages, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We get a lot of &#8216;farmers protest&#8217; type billboards along the sides of the road near us, mostly to do with the fact that supermarkets sell the farm produce for a price that is way in excess of the price the farmers receive. OK so French farmers aren&#8217;t top of the list for the public [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is true that French farmers aren&#8217;t always held in the highest regard, especially by people in countries such as the UK that don&#8217;t benefit from the large farming subsidies that France receives. But for the farmers themselves life isn&#8217;t always sunshine and champagne.
I was talking to a local farmer who predominantly makes his living [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Contrary to what you might sometimes think from this blog I am very happy being an expat and living here in south-west France, and there is nowhere I&#8217;d rather be. I thought I&#8217;d turn the tables a bit today and remind myself (and anyone else) why I like it here:

It&#8217;s had a good run &#8211; including a rather dramatic leap across a ditch about 5 years ago when Mrs B drove too fast around [...]]]></description>
