Lovely relaxing week! Shame about the weather. The guys loved the fishing – made Dan’s 21st Birthday with a 46lb fish. Can recommend the Chinese buffet, Buffalo Grill and many other eateries at Angouleme. The market at Piegut-Pluviers was great but couldn’t pluck up enough courage to buy the escargots!!!! Oradour Sur Glane a must visit – very moving!

La Rochefoucauld hypermarket good value and the chateau well worth a visit. Will be coming back but hoping for less extreme weather next time. Hopefully more fishing and a new PB for Dan. PS – thanks to Marion and Pete fr a lovely stay and the use of your books and plugs!
