Holidays to cherish

I always look forward to receiving my copy of FRANCE Magazine in the post. The issues are full of so many interesting features, places to visit etc.

The magazine creates wonderful memories of many family holidays in France when my children were younger.

The children are adults now, so I miss these holidays very much. Thank you for providing me with these amazing memories, as well as all the other lovely articles, from places to visit to recipes, cinema and books, which are all of interest to me.

I cannot wait to receive my next issue. Mrs Leigh Richards Sidcup, Kent

Blasts from the past

When a member of our French conversation group was de-cluttering, she gave me several back numbers of FRANCE Magazine. I browsed the pages over breakfast and read out snippets to my husband, who recalled some of our experiences during many years of holidaying in France.
