Anyone interested for a few weeks this summer. All exotic locations considered - shorthaul! I am in south of france in old part of very beautiful city. 40mins from beaches, an hour and a half from Spain/mountains. Near vineyards, great restuarnats and bloody good shopping.

Ideally would love Italy!

aDad · 30/03/2007 16:09

Nah mars the south wns it for 'exoticism'.

It's positively tropical in the summer south of the river

watkinsdivorcelawyer · 30/03/2007 16:09

Actually rural herefordshire sounds tempting - so different to us. Chickens n all.

No one offering Florence?

Sorry, adad - have crashpads in London!
