We can watch the France-Wales match this Saturday on the big screen at the Golden Lion from 9am. Perhaps
you’d tell Jean Bource for me ? At half-time the proprietor will serve bacon sandwiches (free) - it’s a traditional
English sandwich. But one shoul;d eat breakfast beforehand !
Thankyou very much for the weekend. We had a very good time. We were very lucky to receive such a
friendly welcome. Thank you to everyone, above all yourself, the town hall for the reception on Friday -
Nathalie and all the Enfants Terribles for the meal on Friday evening, Jean Bource and the president of the
rugby club for the reception at the showing of the match on the big screen on Saturday morning, and also,
after the women’s match on Sunday, Norbert and Elizabeth for the tour and dinner on Saturday, and Edgar
and Ingrid for dinner on Sunday evening. And also Hans, Christine (and above all Flocon !) for their welcome
at Las Cigalas. Thank you again, everyone.
It was a very enjoyable evening ............ Tim: I hope we’ll have a cricket match between Wrington and VLB at
home !! It’s the 200th anniversary of the founding of Wrington Cricket Club in 2018. A celebration which I think
should include a match between twins ??!!
I hope you can understand my version of French ! If you need an English translation, please ask me. Perhaps
you’d be able to point out to me the (many) grammatical errors, because we must learn the lessons for the
return !
Until the next time,
cordially yours,
Phil

Our heroes give thanks !
On their return to Wrington, Phil composed
the following message to Yves Blérard Léglise
and, through him, all the Villeneuvois who
had given them such hospitality last weekend.

Hi Yves,
This morning when I left the house, it was raining and
the temperature was 15°C.I carried a mac for the first
time for three weeks. When we left Bristol airport
yesterday I was wearing a pullover for the first time
in three weeks. Welcome to England !
