      There are a couple of pictures of the village that article mentioned on Google Maps - just search for the village name and use the little person button to see them

              I have just had a look round and there would seem to be plenty of farmland and gardens round there.

              G4 I am the guy behind you in the Q for tickets.

                  I have one stipulation - earplugs. Why? If Potty's coming we'll need them to drown out the sound of the bloody jokes!

                    It would be a dream to set up a GYO commune / eco village in a place like that, just a shame we dont have the money

                      Not much each, if I hadn't got the place in Spain I'd be tempted, assuming there were enough of us sharing the cost.
                      Between us we'd have the skills for most of what would be needed.

                          You guys obviously don't spend enough time on Rightmove - there are farms with cottages come up for sale all the time, although not quite as cheaply as the French village! But a million or so would get you housing and land enough for 4 families, maybe more, in Wales or Scotland

                              a million or so...I like the way you just toss that number off
                              I've got a grand total of not very much and nowhere near enough to buy a new car....I'd buy into a french village though
                              imagine the tourism possibilities....as long as i can buy books and stuff, I'd be happy
