Does anyone have any info on the motocross in cussac this weekend (or ftm at any time) I want to take my photoclub there for an action sport photo session and know nothing about public access. Can anyone enlighten me?

HiMy partner and I are moving to la Dorat in a couple of months, and we were wondering if there were any social groups we could join like French lessons or walking [have a dog] or gardening groups and my partner interested in model railways. Any information would be great. Just pm me on awbridgedogs@gmail.com

Will be in our caravan soon exploring the Dordogne.Would like a campsite, with toilets, showers, electric hook up by a river or lake where we can go swimming. Some shade would be good, two adults and a dog.

Hi All,I hope this reaches everyone who has expressed interest in playingwalking football and just in case can you pass this new development on to any potential interested party.I have been in touch with the Mairie at Aulnay, who put me in touch with the football club in the town, as the five-a-side football pitch that I was interested in belongs to them.There are other groups that use the facility but not many and we would be welcome to use the pitch at no cost! We would have to individually pay something to make sure we are insured and that US d'Aulnay don't become liable for any injuries we may receive!So, I propose to finalise everything with them in the New Year and tostart playing shortly afterwards! So moderation at Christmas please and let’s play in the New Year.RegardsTed Sellwood
