    totally agree with your comment about that hideous building between that 11th C tower of Philippe Auguste. Amazing that was allowed to happen.

      It's such a shame Ron, especially in such a historic town

      @teachateaudiy It's a head-scratcher for sure! Of all places, why put something like that there? I wonder if it's one of those architects that thinks standing out is a synonym for outstanding.

    Jane I absolutely loved this video. Oh my word the town is so lovely. I could have just sat in that beautiful, beautiful church just listening to the bells. I laughed when you said " where have they gone". I'm like you Jane I take all the photos and videos and always get left behind too. You are really good at filming and I love how you explain about the history of the places and buildings.

    The bells gave real authenticity to the medival Town, it was fascinating. The beautiful château made me think of Disney Land ❤ I'll have a look at your friends château de Quantilly 😊

    Hi! I love your videos! Even in the USA we had watch towers in our cities and towns. They were fire watch towers. We still have one in the major city close to me. I hope that you both had a nice time! You both have been working so hard!

    • @notquiteachateaudiy
      @notquiteachateaudiy  11 месяцев назад

      Glad you enjoyed it Maureen, yes there are a lot of Scottish connections around here and we often hear the pipes, our town is twinned with Dunbar, so there are often events here associated with that. Ayrshire must be lovely, we've been to Glasgow and to Govan for Hogmanay, but not to Ayr, I bet it's very pretty and the old thatched cottage sounds cute xx

    • @notquiteachateaudiy
      @notquiteachateaudiy  11 месяцев назад +1

      well worth a visit Mike, maybe a stopover for you though if it's 3 hours drive! the Chateau Stuart museum is open from May I think, and the big Scottish celebrations are in July, with pipe bands parading round the castle and town

    What a wonderful time you all had. Gary has done so much work. I thought John was there when I saw the hole in the ceiling. LOL.
    The town was awesome. Tony looked good in the kilt.😅 The church is beautiful. Why did the bells ring so long? Were they for mass? Beautiful shops and flea markets. Lots of nice things at that brocante. I did like that seretaire as well as the wardrobe.
    I am happy you both enjoyed your visit. Thanks for sharing. The architecture in the town is stunning. Cheers.

    • @notquiteachateaudiy
      @notquiteachateaudiy  11 месяцев назад

      Thank you for that Peter, I don't know why the bells rang so long, there wasn't any sign of a service coming up, or a wedding or anything. It was lunchtime on market day/Saturday maybe they were just practising? but we were lucky to hear them ringing it was lovely and nice for the vlog too, added an ambience I think x

    Aubigny-sur-Nere center of Scottishness! going back to 1400? Land grants were awarded to Scots for victory over the English! I always wonder why Scotland attracted so many French tourists. Many remained in France finding the weather and life very agreeable.

      Yes Todd, a lot of those houses are inhabited and some are used publicly, such as the first one, which is an art gallery
