Dancing in the Halles

The association Citrus are organising a series of Bals / dances in the local Halles through out the summer. They have held a very successful one at Caylus and the next one is in the Halle at Verfeil sur Seye on the 17th of June starting at 14.30 hrs. After that at Caussade on the 15th of July at 14.00 hrs. Everyone is invited and there will be traditional dances, Occitane and Scottish ( which is not Scottish as we know it but not far removed) For more info contact Coralie on Tel 0979083699 Make a day of it on the first date at Verfeil and have a treat by going to 'La Seye et Vous' for lunch. See if you can get Charlie to make you brandade de morue which is basically fish and potato and comes in a the form of a ' drap Basque' ( basque flag' ) as this is the region it originated from. A similar dish but more salty called estofineado comes from this region. Book well before on this day and for those who need it Charlie speaks English.
