When is it? Is there a website. Is it a bit like the Agricultural Show that used to be in London years ago? Was it called the Smithfield show?........... Maybe they still have it? Bit out of touch as usual!

I got my Donkey Magazine today and there is an advert for the 'Salon International de l'Agriculture de Paris' and the 'Village des Anes' (Donkey Village). The advert says that every day there will be a presentation of the 7 breeds for French donkeys. There will be breeders, owners and associated personnel. It is the 19th to 27th February, and the donkeys are in Hall 4. Website: www.salon-agriculture.com/

We have been two or three times It is lovely . So much to see the donkeys presentations are fantastic - Not just walking round in a circle to see who has the best confirmation ! The agricultural bit and food halls are also fantastic as well We spend the weekend there going eurostar from Ebbfleet straight into Paris Stay at a lovely B & B in Paris them straight into the show from the metro So easy , no hassle If any one is interested in donkeys horses , livestock or food it is well worth a visit Any French members going ? If any one else is going we could meet for acoffer and chat

I'd love to go, but like Fou, will have to see what we are doing nearer the time. We have both obviously lived in France for too long as we can't commit/organise too far in advance! ;D

We can't afford it this year sadly - house renovations are taking every spare penny unfortunately.
