I'm pleased to hear you've read my book, hope you liked it.
One tiny point: Boulogne-sur-Gesse in the Haute-Garonne not the Gers, but near the border.
:-)
Best wishes

I very much enjoyed the history of Gascony in the book - very interesting. It also read as though it was an idyllic summer that you had. The end a little sad, but true to life time goes and so do people.
Also enjoyed your talk at the French exhibition.

Hi Monty, read your message re: The Pyrenees, I am 10mins from B-S-Gesse, and have main house including a restaurant biz I am getting under way. At the moment I can offer you loads of contacts and info on the area.
I can put you in contact with a 'walking guide' for the moutains+drive you there also. Luchon and other locations, are about 45mins from me, and you will have easy access to all that I think you need. The weather here is a bit of a Micro-Climate, with lots of sunshine, and cold winters also with sun again for perfect skiing... The boarder with Spain is also a stones-throw from us, so lots of cheap things there... plus, ANOTHER COUNTRY!!
Regards Jon.

Hi Jon
Sounds like a good business you have, why not post on a few more forums ? I am sure there are lots of potential customers out there just waiting to hear from you![Devil [6]](/cs/emoticons/emotion-14.gif)

Hi there,
bought a house in St Ferreol de Comminges 2 years ago (near Boulogne). we love it and hoping to be able to move there permanently in a couple of years.
Being french and my partner english i really can say it is still my favourite part of France, still wild with not to many tourist.
an estate agent in l'isle en dodon (AB immobilier) was great.
best of luck

Had lunch there last Thursday - wanted to go for an evening meal but you do need to book fairly well ahead, so obviously popular.
When we ate there the place was fairly empty - probably about 18 people in all. It was not as I imagined it from the book but there again that is down to ones imagination. However, we were not disappointed. It was a very pleasant experience. The soup was especially good.
Did note that they did not have any copies of Martins book for sale :)
