The Health centre at Varen has everybodys approval and better than that a subvention of 62,000 euros from the regions council for it to go ahead. It is envisaged a batiment [ building ] of 370 square metres with 3 Doctors, a dentist, 3 nurses, a pysiotherapist, podologue [ feet] dietician etc. This is partly to help stem the desertation of medics from the country for the towns. Now if that does not make the house prices in Varen shoot up for all us older residents what will ? I have a vision of Varen in 10 years time with mobility scooter lanes and instead of us discussing cars we will all be discussing the finer points of our racing mobility scooters. Maybe the car makers who are having such a hard time will start putting money in to scooters and a Mercedes cabriolet type scooter will be on the market... hmm. suppose they are all cabriolets.
In answer to tell me more I know nothing else about the Health Centre but will keep you up to date.
I wonder are these my headlines for the future ?
Plain pieds in Varen - prices sky high.
Police breathalyse speeding Pensioners on mobility scooters
Varen Regatta dropped in favour of Le Mans style circuit around the Village.
Crematorium moving from Montauban to Varen.
Any other ideas?
