‘Ponds in rural France are beautifully maintained but no longer used’
Columnist Peter Wyeth laments that these large, impressive sites, once the fresh-aired setting for family picnics, barbecues and fun, now fail to attract people
Tut tut, Heffy
How sad that a person of Mr Heffer’s intelligence should condone the disgraceful lack of respect of a boy, 15.
How wonderful that France has a president who does not allow such behaviour to go uncorrected in a country where a village mayor is addressed as Monsieur le Maire so a president should always be addressed as Monsieur le President by all.
It would be hard to deny that a hard working M.Macron has in a short space of time turned his country round to be respected by all of Europe, something a boy, 15, should be grateful for in years to come.
So, come on Heffy give us positive news about Monsieur le President so we can have more respect for those who comment on living in France.
Roger Armson, Hérault
