I am bringing my granchildren to france in july for the first time and have not really had a good look at what there is to do for them  a 4 year old and six year old any one got any good ideas not to far from from Gourin

Thank you for all your helpful suggestions. We have been coming to france for the past 12 years but have only explored a few places always been busy working on the house, which is still not complete.  Have been to the pool in Carhaix and like this very much. Would like to be able to make friends if any one wants a penpal. We live in a small hamlet and they are all english so would like to make new fiends regardsJulie

Bonjour mes amis (hello my friends),It is just a couple of days to go until super saturday and apart from Italy who will be recieving the wooden spoon this year,we have all got something to play for.I had best start of with England as they have won the six nations this year and will be chasing a second consecutive grandslam and also the world record at test level for the amount of consecutive victories. I wish you luck. Joe shmidt will obviously doing his best to stop you and it promises to be a great game.France,Ireland,scotland and not forgetting my team Wales will all be able to finish in second place if they get it right on saturday,or if they get it wrong maybe fifth !! all to play for :-)Its been a bit of an inconsistant tournament for the welsh team,though apart from our lack of consistancy I am happy that we have been part of the two best matches of the tournament,being England and Ireland respectively.I will probably get done for treason saying this,but by half time in the Wales-England game at cardiff I said to myself " I do not care who wins this game as long as the levels of intensity stay the same,and they did. At the end of the match I honestly did not mind losing as it was some of the best rugby I have ever seen. credit to both teams.Scotland have played some nice rugby this year too and put both Wales and Ireland out of the running for the title;so damn good effort from them.Italy has been quite interesting this time round,especially with their phantom rucks against England. I do wonder how much Mike catt had to do with that strategy !!And the French !!!!!!!!!!!!!!I wish you all a great end of tournament and hope that you have all enjoyed it in good spirits and in good health.I shall hopefully be back in Brittany in a couple of weeks. I have just got one more garden to get into shape here in Burgundy and then look forward to getting back and chewing the fat with those of you that share my passion for this great rugby tournament.Love and light to allJamie and cockney the wonderdog xx
