Hi to everyone,

We are Anne & Simon from the N E of England, we have enjoyed holidays in Argeles and the surrounding area for the past four consecutive years.........So I think we have found a holiday destination that we like!

At some point in the future we intend to buy a holiday property and extend the time we stay in the area.

We really found the P-O Life magazine and web site a huge help and now we have found the forum it gets even better.

We hope to meet some of the "Brits abroad" in the future when we next stay in Argeles.

Thanks & Regards

Anne & Simon

Welcome Anne and Simon, to P O Life, Argeles and the P O. My husband and I have lived permanently in Argeles for almost 10 years and like you holidayed here and totally fell in love with the area, people, food and, of course, wine. We initially bought a mobile home for holidays and then our now permanent home. Enjoy your time here.
