Pont Noir

Hi

Just thought we would introduce ourselves......... we are moving to Auriat, 23400 on 19th September 2016. This move is a much desired retirement one. Our emotions have been up and down, mainly due to the referendum ! but we are strongly committed to not allow anything or anyone to spoil our dreams !

Out of interest, is there a change of attitude towards the English due to the referendum ? or has life carried on regardless ?

Many thanks

Angela and Paul

Good luck with your move

No change if your integrated, or at least trying

Wishing you both great happiness on your move to the Creuse. We currently have a holiday home for the last 12 years and plan to retire to the Creuse in the next 5 years. We have noticed no change in attitudes of the locals in our hamlet following Brexit. We have spent a lot of money renovating our house over the last decade and hope the Brexit plans don't prevent us realising our dream.

Welcome to the forum. I've never been to Auriet but it's in a lovely part of the Creuse and there is some fantastic walking down there.

I've not noticed any animosity towards the English after Brexit. Most of out neighbours have an opinion of course - either that it's crazy or brilliant depending on their own view of what France should do, but none seemed angry or annoyed about it (unlike many of the ex-pats are at their UK based brethren).
