More French fancies...

When I wrote about someone taking their Aga to France with them, I presumed it was a one-off and found the idea delightfully quirky.
I was wrong - as proven by the many letters I got this morning on the subject of Agas that emigrate.
William Dees wrote to tell me that in 1992 his Aga made its way from the UK to the South of France and has lived there happily ever since. This time the Aga was shipped whole, rather than in bits, and William had to get the local rugby team to help move it into place - as you'll see from the pictures, they managed this with relative ease.

Each summer a friend visits William and his wife for a holiday. The gentleman in question happens to be an Aga engineer, so while he's there he also gives the Aga its annual service. Sounds like the perfect house guest!
