POULLIGNAC FESTIVAL 2011This year it was a Poullignac Festival with a difference.
As always, the last weekend in June the Festival takes place and a lot of activity is going on in the Village. This year the Poullignac Festival was a bit different from all the other years. Normally the village pays for a whole lot of entertainers for the afternoon, but this year the whole village got involved. Our lovely Lady Mariee Miree decided we should all get involved in a little theatre piece, starting with the Cavemen.
Doesn't he look real?? Scary…….
You can imagine we all had a really good laugh while we were rehearsing. After the Cavemen it went on to the Vikings and Peasants with a little performance including children. And I can proudly say that my 2 kids took part as well. My daughter a little peasant and my son of course a viking.
There you go, my son Sacha and myself
And the last piece was the Middle Ages, which included our Mariee.
We all had a really good time and the visitors to the Poullignac Festival enjoyed it as well. Of course on the day it was extremely hot and being dressed up in a costume was no fun at all.
Yes, I think I can say that we all worked very hard this year. What will happen in 2012? You will just have to wait and see as I know something different is planned again. So, should you be in the area the end of June 2012 come and visit our lovely village. Have a lovely time
