I was delighted to see your photo of Pascale Philippe and myself, the secretary and president of the Anglo-French Club Swindon respectively, in your paper on Monday, celebrating the Rugby World Cup semi-final.

I noted that you recognised the importance of the French perspective in the match despite the results.

Your readers may be interested to know that Swindon has a very active Anglo-French Club which meets monthly in the Croft Sports Centre and anyone with an interest in French language and/or culture is most welcome to come along.

Details can be found on the web at www.communigate.co.uk/wilts/anglofrenchclubswindon.

The next meetings are on December 5 at 7.30pm (the informal annual dinner) and January 9 at the same time, when there will be a presentation by a member of Alliance Francaise.

You can just turn up.

L Davies

President of Anglo-French Club Swindon
