The promise of dawn
Monday, just before their departure by truck, the bishop of Aire and Dax blessed the chairs which, from Landes, reached Notre-Dame de Paris. During his speech, Monsignor Souchu made a commitment: “I promise to go and sit on one of these seats after the opening of Notre-Dame. »
The man is of course invited, like all the bishops of France, on December 8, but given the crowds there will be, he is not sure he will be able to sit down that day. This explains it. A promise that every Landais should make, if only to pay tribute to the quality of the work of the Hagetmautian company. Great initiative in any case on the part of the man of the Church, who soon risks being called the Father… the chair.
The red rally scarf
Without going so far as to turn their jackets inside out, they still hung a red scarf or neckerchief around their neck. Julien Dubois, some of his deputies from the municipal majority and the chief of staff of the mayor of Dax, obviously wanted to look good and be part of the Landes derby party, at the Jean-Dauger stadium in Bayonne, Saturday November 16.
Pro D2: the Dacquois masters of the Landes, even in Bayonne
Superior in front and carried by a great Noah Nene, the US Dax won, with the offensive bonus (40-11), the Landes derby relocated to Bayonne, this Saturday, November 16. A total victory and “a big sigh of relief” for Jeff Dubois’ men
After having said all the bad things they thought of the decision of the leaders of US Dax to relocate this meeting opposite the Stade Montois, all seemed forgiven for the elected representatives of Dacquois, even before settling down in the comfortable presidential stand. The victory of the red and white even allowed Julien Dubois and his team to take to the pitch after the final whistle. Just to have an example of what the Maurice-Boyau land could become, one of the major projects to be carried out in this enclosure!
Where is the mayor?
Knowing that the Landes has 328 municipalities, and that a group of 100 mayors had breakfast then visited the National Assembly alongside the territory's deputies, on Thursday, what probability did you have of meeting your first magistrate in his town hall, these these days? It appears very weak, as the holding of the Congress of Mayors of France has once again filled the agendas of Landes municipal elected officials.
If it is to be hoped that group rates have been negotiated in order to transport all these people to the capital and accommodate them, can we really blame him? Given the workload and responsibilities of a village elected official, this annual trip to Paris can seem like a breather… just like the Agricultural Show for farmers.
Fallen for the trap
In recent days, farmers from Rural Coordination have embarked on a tour, in Mont-de-Marsan, to dump bales of straw and others in front of the entrances to various state services. They notably targeted the French Biodiversity Office (OFB), avenue de Chourié. Or so they believed. As they were preparing to unload their load, a neighbor came out of her house to point out their mistake: the OFB had moved its branch to Morcenx-la-Nouvelle. He was minus one. This is called falling for it.
Butterflies of anxiety or glory?
After the “Butterfly of Light” by Cindy Sander, the Moun butterflies are much less festive. Left on the windshields of (poorly) parked motorists near sporting events, they do not provide the same joy. First salvo, Thursday November 7, near the André-et-Guy Boniface stadium on the occasion of the Pro D2 meeting between Stade Montois and Biarritz.
Second salvo, this Wednesday, near the François-Mitterrand space, for the clash between Basket Landes and Salamanca. The police assure us that these paper butterflies announcing that a violation has been noted will not be converted into a fine. Phew! Another reason to rejoice, each flock of butterflies was accompanied by a victory for the local team. What will be the next target of these butterflies of anxiety… or glory?
