Today is the 80th Anniversary of the "Battle of Ecueille". Not a big one in the history books but very important for its residents, especially those that still remain from that time. And there is at least one in these photos! 25th Aug 1944 saw the Germans retreating and generally causing havoc, destroying anything in their way. They hadn't reckoned on coming across a small detachment of the 8th Cuirassiers (Cavalry although light armoured by this time) and the local farmers and Resistance. A bloody battle ensued and many died and were injured on both sides but the French prevailed at the end. The action saw the commune win a Croix de Guerres for the bravery and courage of its inhabitants at the time. Pictures below are from today's ceremonies.

Over the last couple of years, we have been developing another, more enclosed, seating area for the gite. The plants around the edge of the gite garden have now matured a little giving a nice secluded area to read a book, do a bit of sunbathing or just enjoy the peace and calm of our gite.
Thanks to our friend Paula for a lot of the work involved!
