Number ten, cache - cache was the judges favourite

The opening and vernissage of Les Livres D' artistes was today. The judges votes were in and the winner was no. 10 called  "cache- cache" It was not the one Malc and I chose, it was though second on our list.
The exhibition which is on all week in the Salle des  Thermes at St. Antonin is worth a visit, if you love books and art.
I had not anticipated spending any money but I had little change out of 50 euros after buying some beautiful note pads with matching pencils from a lady bookbinder who has an atelier at Bor et Bar. Just the thing I thought for little gifts... if I can bear to give them away.
Béatrice Pagès the bookbinder has a workshop at Bor et Bar 12270 tel 0565656897
The books she had on display were well and beautifully bound, we shall be going to see her.

What a surprise and could be useful.

Went to the post box  today to discover a postcard from our old bookbinder from Preston called Bob Porter. We knew he had moved to France slightly after us but never really knew where. Well he appears to be living in a Moulin in the Gers. Thought you might like his website in case you need  to have a book bound.
