More steps forward

29/06/2008 by Bob and Di.

The work involved in the extension of Parc Verger is continuing – the land is now looking great, with a good covering of grass.  The pipes that will carry the electrical cables are in place and we are now letting the ground settle after all of the work, with the objective of opening the extension next Spring (2009).  We will then be able to host rallies for caravan and motorhome clubs as there is plenty of room for such meets.

In the meantime work continues on providing sanitary facilities in the old chalet on site.  Tiling will be underway this week (30^th June onwards), and the installation of the solar panels and hot water tank will follow immediately.    At this stage we are not 100% sure of when everything will be finished, but it will not be long now.  We’ll publish some photographs of both aspects of these works soon, so keep a look out for these.

We now have a bakers van calling every day (ex Weds and Sundays), and a butcher calling twice a week, all part of providing the best of service for our clients.  On this aspect, do not forget to try to get here for

Ø      15^th August – festival, with stalls through the village, a seven-course meal in the evening (only 15€) followed by fireworks and dancing

Ø      19^th October – Cidre et cochonaille (Cider and piglet) – with again plenty of stalls during the day, and this time a seven-course lunch!  Come and win the piglet, all you have to do is guess its weight!
