Boulistes en colere

Imagine pouring concrete over your boulodrome: it's just not cricket. The inhabitants of a Toulouse square have mounted a petition against the Mairie's plan to cover the square with concrete in an attempt to reduce the noise and litter in the place, following complaints from residents in the area.
The Mairie says it will upgrade another petanque terrain  300 metres away, but regulars say that the
Place du Ravelin, Toulouse
move will deprive the square of its life after the shops have closed.
With the approach of the summer season and all day events and concours nocturnes many villages will be experiencing the ambiance that an amical can give to a place - with the noise and litter that go with them.
