Well, you could be right I guess, but I don’t think that’s the case. Provence departments and Dordogne both seem happy to give out information (not in enormous amounts, but at least reasonable quality basic stuff), and I guess they get more visitors than any of the listed departments, but I don’t actually have statistics for visitor numbers so can’t be sure…

Great post, I guess it is because Lozere and Vendee are less visited places and they do all they can to promote, contrary to Yonne, just my humble opinion

My family were already mad before I drove them to it.
Good news is, I found money. Bad news is, it was too late to also find presents. Mrs B got her bottle of chablis though.
Surely the pleasure of seeing me come home safely is enough of a present for them…?

Err I think someone needs to sit you down and explain how to treat you wife and family.Also about how to plan a journey so you do not run out of cash etc. Your description sounds like a studant going abroad for the first time. you must be driving your family mad.

nothing needs to be expensive, but it needs to be thoughtful. and not cheese.

Dear me.

This is the worst excuse for ‘no present’ that me and the girls have heard to date!
