In the Dordogne I visited St-Cirq-Lapopie,
reminiscent of the village in Hot Fuzz: it is publicised as
one of the Most Beautiful Villages of France and
doubltess has an efficient service for keeping itself pure. It was
charming if also a trifle overwhelming.
Back near my base in Montignac, I visited the
village of Fanlac, which is advertising a “world fête”
on 26 May 2012—reminiscent of Billy Connolly's World Tour of
Scotland. There were fresh flowers on a memorial to members of the
Resistance shot by Nazis.
Inspired by Jack Aubrey, I took to the waters
again, this time in a hired canoe on the River Vézère.
Among others I passed the Château de Losse.
