Poorpaws book sale

Poorpaws  booksale 

Hi All,  Thank you so much for getting together today and helping with the books.  So glad we opted to borrow the van as I doubt we would have got everything in two cars !  I shall have a very enjoyable couple of hours sorting that lot.

Details of the sale are, 19th October at village hall in St. Pantaleon which is a tiny village between Cahors and Montcuq.  Kick off 10 am - though people usually start turning up well before !  Would love to see anyone from 'over the border' !

Where can I leave my car?

Hi Val,

 I am looking for a place to leave my car from the end of October until March next year.

I would obviously  pay for it. It could be in or out-side. If it could be run once a month that would be a bonus.

When yiou are able it would be great to have this on TAGonline.

Let me know the charge.

Kind regards,

Nick Coulson.

Save the date

People have been asking me when your next favourite (big headed ?  moi ?)  Book Sale will take place.  Well, diaries ready,  Saturday 19th October.  Write it in now so you don't forget !  Same place, same format.  Salle de Fetes, St; Pantaleon, (Lot, not far from Montcuq), 10am.

Yummy home made cakes, tea, coffee, snack lunches all will be there to make your visit even more enjoyable and Ron and Brian will be there providing the lovely background music.

I have been spending days sorting through boxes and boxes of books and all books on sale will have been given my seal of approval.  Promise, promise, promise there will be something for everyone, good condition and no rubbish - well, in my opinion.  We will have two new categories, classics old and new, and first editions,  plus, if any of you have a special book you are looking out for, let me know in advance and, if we have it, I will put it by for you.

Books and dvds one euro (first editions will be slightly more expensive), cds 50 cents, so come along for a great day.  As usual, money will go to Poorpaws, La Mere aux Betes and Cancer Support France.

See you there !

Gilder needed

Hello Val

I would very much like to find a specialist who could repair the plaster moulding and gild a large overmantle mirror I have. It is very beautiful but need some tlc. 

Do you know of anyone please or would it be possible  to put an advert/post on the Taglines website to ask if anyone local knows of one ? We live between Caylus and Espinas. 

With grateful thanks in advance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Very best wishes

3 hectares to manage in Najac

We have been recommended tagonline as a possible point of contact for us. We are looking for someone who would like some flexible past time work on our 3 hectares of land in Najac. We are renovating the buildings slowly but cannot keep up with keeping the grass and shrubs under control. We have been involved with Najac for 25 years and the farm project is now our priority. We would love to discuss the groundwork with anyone who can help if only to point us in the right direction!

Thank you
