TAGlines could be back
Do you remember TAGlines? Conceived as a means of keeping English speakers in the "golden triangle" where Tarn, Aveyron and Tarn & Garonne departments meet - around the lovely medieval villages of St Antonin Noble Val, Varen and Najac it was published quarterly from 2003 - 2005, growing from four A4 pages to twice that size.
Given away free around the area it was supported by local advertising and a few generous donations.
The editorial concentrated on local events and personalities, but with the emphasis firmly on our hosts the French population (and indeed many of them were pleased to read something in English of interest to the area).
The publisher, Val Johnstone of Varen, would like to re-establish TAGlines, but via the electronic media and first steps are to establish an on-line blog version. So if you have news, views, items for sale, events to publicise etc why not let TAG on-line know at taglines82@gmail.com
