We are staying in the delightful village of St Marcan on the Brittany Normandy border. Our accommodation is a 200 year old house in a very quiet village. There are no shops but yesterday afternoon we walked to upper St Marcan and visited a unique telegraph station. It was built just after the French Revolution and was the forerunner of modern telecommunication. It could send a message to Paris in 20 minutes.
Unfortunately there is no Internet cafe but we did visit the creperie bar and had crepe bretagne washed down with muscadet. We recovered in time to dine at the local village pub. Tomorrow we dine at the only other eaterie, the pub in the upper village.
PS This was like a little bit of Britain run by a football fanatic from Manchester.

I think crepes and the 2 pubs beat an internet cafe hands down!
I think that pub sounds V. scary.
