PO Christmas Fayre
Xmas Fair - Sunday 27th November 2011 The Mairie of St Jean Pla de Corts has contacted us again to assist him in organising the Xmas fair. For those that would like to apply to exhibit please email me info@domainetreloar.com
The price of the stand will be the same as last year €10 per 2 metre stand but this year BUT you will need to provide your own table this year as the Mairie does not have his tables at this building anymore. If you know of anyone else who might be interested in exhibiting please get them to email me - preference will be given to those that exhibited last year and we will try to avoid duplicate stands/stands selling the same thing. Meeting I would like to call a meeting on 3rd November at 6.30 pm at Domaine Treloar, 16 Traverse de Thuir, Trouillas where the a new president, secretary and tresurer positions need to be appointed - if you are interested in any of the following please email me.

Epidemic of gastric flu
FIVE regions are affected by an outbreak of gastroenteritis, an illness causing diarrhea and vomiting.
They are all above the “epidemic” level (204 cases per 100,000 of the population).
Those concerned, according to the Sentinelles network, which monitors illness trends, are Poitou-Charentes (212), Languedoc-Roussillon (250), Centre, Alsace (371) and Limousin (700).
Elsewhere in France levels are fairly low, no more than 132 cases on average.
Also known as gastric flu, it is an inflammation of the stomach and intestine, unrelated to ordinary flu. It is usually caused by a virus.
While unpleasant, doctors say it is rarely serious apart from in babies and the elderly.
A map of areas affected by acute diarrhea, one of the main symptoms, has been released:

Good news for second home owners
THE FRENCH government has abandoned plans to levy a controversial new tax on holiday homes owned by non-residents.
The proposed tax, announced last month, would have targeted non-residents, of all nationalities, who have second homes in France that are not rented out.
Up to 360,000 homes would have been affected from January 2012 and it was estimated that the tax would bring in €176m a year.
President Sarkozy and budget minister François Baroin met a group of UMP senators who represent French expatriates on Saturday afternoon to discuss the plan.
Transport minister Thierry Mariani, who was also present at the meeting, told reporters afterwards that the government had agreed not to pursue the proposed tax.
It has already been voted by the National Assembly and was due to be picked up by the Senate on Tuesday. It is part of a bigger finance bill that also deals with matters including the reform of wealth tax.
The proposed tax would have been at least as high as the taxe foncière in many cases, meaning an extra bill of several hundred to several thousand euros a year dependent on home size and location.
There were concerns that the proposal would be passed because of a lack of political representation for expatriates.
The government believed that second home-owners should contribute more to the national budget, to make up for infrastructure and services they use but do not fund through income tax.
However the new tax, if it had been passed, would have been scrutinised by the European Union because it risks preventing the free movement of capital.

Just over the border
Another great thing about living in the Roussillon is that Spain is just a few minutes over the border. Not only are the shops cheaper but there are great sights to see, a wide and varied selection of restaurants and the beaches.........
If you happen to be in the area 10th & 11th June then why not.......

Looking to rent, sell or buy in the Roussillon - Ceret Property
Just a little further inland
If you are looking for something else to do whilst in the Roussillon area, why not visit the Cathares. starting with the ones close to Perpignan, you can travel all the way to the heart of the Cathares at Montsegur, where the
people lived in peace until in the 13 century, the Catholic Church decided it was time to root out some heretics.
Just down the road from Montsegur, there is the fascinating village of Rennes le Château, where the Abbé Sauniere suddenly became extremely rich and in the end was refused his last ritesin his death bed.
And did you know that in 2012 the world is going to end. Not sure which date but make sure you get to the Pic de Bugerach as this is said to be one of the areas to be spared the disaster. We went up there the other day to see what all the fuss is about. great day out but make sure that you choose the easier assent.
If you are visiting the area then I would recommend this lovely Chambre D’hôte in Quillan, which a great base for exploring the mountains and castles.
If you happen to be in the area at the beginning of June then why not visit The Vernissage of 10 Artists

Sorry to have been away for a while. Hectic times.
Saw this on PO Life and thought it was worth putting out there.
Driving home down a country road one evening? I saw a child in a car seat on the roadside, covered with a blanket. I can not explain why, but I did not stop, even though I felt bad about it. When I arrived, I phoned the police who agreed to check it out, but explained that is was likely to be a scam.
Gangs of thieves are constantly developing new schemes to rob and mug. Some gangs work by finding ways to stop cars (especially women) on quiet roads.
One scenario:
One way is to place a car seat at the roadside, usually near a wood or fields, with a fake baby sitting in it. If a woman stops, she could well be robbed, dragged into the woods, beaten, raped. Men have also been violently beaten, and robbed.
Do not stop under any circumstances!
Call 112 as soon as possible, and give details of where and what, BUT DO NOT SLOW DOWN
Another common scenario:
If you are driving at night and eggs are thrown at your windscreen, DO NOT STOP, EVEN IF YOU CANT SEE WELL. Do not turn on your wipers either, as washer fluid or even water will make the windscreen worse when mixed with egg.

Sunshine at last!
Heavy rain has claimed 2 lives in the Pyrenees Orientales.
After 6 days of continuous rain, the sun came out today, the temperature has been up as high as 20 degrees and spring is in the air. Over the last dank days, rivers have been swollen, Fords impassable, river banks collapsing and sadly two people lost their lives in separate incidents when their cars were swept away on a river ford.
Now that the swimming pool that appeared in my garden has begun to disappear, I have been able to see everything suddenly spring to life as Printemps (I hope) has finally arrived.

Catalonian Government reduces speed limit.
In an attempt to save the tax payer money, the government of Catalonia has decreed that the national speed limit on the Motorways in northern Spain will be reduced from 120kph to 110kph.
They forgot to take one tiny detail into account....There are so many road works between the French boarder and Girona that it is virtually impossible to go above the speed of 80kph.

Could this be the start of a good year?
Mortgage taps are turned on
FINANCE should no longer be a problem for anyone looking to buy a new property, providing they have all their details in order.
Mortgages are becoming more freely available, despite low interest rates. Finance brokers Empruntis say it is possible to get a fixed 3.4 per cent mortgage rate over 15 years and 3.55 per cent over 20 years “with a beau dossier”.
The changes have come as the banks have started to free up credit with the easing of the financial crisis and is a welcome boost for people who had plans disrupted by the restrictions.
Empruntis spokeswoman Mael Bernier said that there was even competition between the banks again and it was possible to get a loan with just a 10 per cent deposit, or even no deposit at all, as long as their financial situation was otherwise solid.
Borrowers were also now looking to renegotiate their credit, said Cafpi finance network chief Philippe Taboré and, if they could not get what they wanted, were confident enough to take their business elsewhere.
Empruntis said 45 per cent of the demand for credit was from people looking to refinance away from high-cost loans and said anyone with a mortgage dating from 2007-09 should take financial advice.

Ceret in the news again
Due to the fact that local people could not believe such constructions were built by human hands, many bridges built in medieval Europe were given the name "the Devil's Bridge". This is the Devil's Bridge at Céret, Pyrénées-Orientales, France, a 14th-century bridge with a 46-metre span.
