Hi, I am up to my eyeballs in painting and decorating so have been off the radar a wee bit! Will be in Ciboure very soon (next ten days!) once the house is ready. My other half will have his Osteopathic practice there and I will also work from home too.

There was a english speakers ladies' book / magazine swap in Biarritz a few weeks ago, but I didn't make it.

Not sure about any real expat thing though.

And do you know of any online language class that is good?

But - I am willing to get one going

Hi, we've been in Bayonne for the past two years. My husband is from London and I was born here although my parents left for the uk when I was little. We don't know many people here and getting an expat community going would be fun.

Hi all,
Un petit cafe would be great. Let us know where and when. I know Salsa will be in the Ciboure area but Seven - where are you based? Also Salsa - interested in the osteo as I currently go up to Bayonne for Osteo when I work in St Jean and live Ciboure so bit of a trek after work.

Hope to meet you all soon
