For his 4th edition

Last weekend I was Talking with Ludo , he was saying that he never received English or Dutch people

we asked ourselves why , Arras isn't that far from the border so maybe people are not aware

I promised Ludo to make some publicity

So , we all invite you to come

Hi

Surprised to hear this.  I would have thought that people would have come for a variety of reasons but particulalry to vist war graves.  I have been there and stayed in a hotel on the large market place which is quite spectacular. They have large concerts in the square (Celine Dion and Radiohead have played in the last few years.)

We visited the grave of my wife's great (great) uncle who died in WWI.   My oldest friend's wife is from just outside Arras.

Check out the castle of Olhain (www.chateau-olhain.com) which could be recreated in Steck.
