And here we are Summer and in my lovely little town of Pluvigner, in the Morbihan breton dept 56 of our beautiful Bretagne and on my belle France! Ok so this one should be short…lol!

We have a huge bartering and fleas market each year here.. It is very close to our house…. people from all over and afar come for it. It is always book solid weeks in advance and over 5K persons attend. Yet , we have not been to it!!

Yes, the fleas market is not my glass of wine. I do enjoy the regular markets or marchés but bartering and fleas market is not for me. However, it has become so big did took a peek this year. And some photos for the show too. Maybe you come visiting or live here and enjoy these events, could be an attraction to come to little Pluvigner lol! Just saying..

The run of it is that as every year for twenty years, the management team of the Kériolets football(soccer for the other pond) club will welcome visitors on Sunday for its summer barter and fleas market and its 21st edition!!!

If the place, the Goh-Lanno sports complex (see post), remains unchanged, the rules are profoundly changed. Due to our friendly virus we need to wear masks and go in single lane in and out with a routing pre determined. Very discipline indeed. The organizers widened the aisles for visitors, and created a larger space to safely accommodate the 280 exhibitors.

The event was Sunday July 26, 2020 from 7h to 19h, Goh-Lanno  sports complex. Pluvigner of course. Entrance fee: 1.50€ . Small catering on site.

Ok so now don’t tell anybody I did not told you so; its here, available nice big all kinds of gadgets seen for bartering and fleas market galore, bring all the entire family if you dare. Me not convince yet.

Anyway, sponsored by the Keriolet football club of Pluvigner but don t even mentioned it in their page, the club is doing well until stop by the virus rules, 12 wins 2 ties and one loss, yep moving up those Pluvignioses!!! their webpage for info is here: Keriolet football club of Pluvigner

And remember, happy travels, good health, and many cheers to all!!!

Ok so this is close very close to me. I have written many posts on my town of Pluvigner and even some on the parc Goh Lanno, but still left out lots of information and as I passed by it again with new photos, this is the time for an update and recap. Again, my thrill to showcase the best of France at a human level.

Surely, for a small town of about 7K folks , this is one of the best sports complex around and we are very happy about it and even more so because it is walking distance from my house. So let me tell you a bit more on the parc Goh Lanno. Not to be confused to the adjoint collége Goh Lanno or middle school.

The Goh Lanno sports complex is huge and one of my son’s plays for the local team B and starter and already score a goal so very happy for him. If you stop by we sure will take you here especially if it is a sports football /soccer game although it also, host the local basketball and volleyball teams in the nice fieldhouse.  The Rugby and Tennis parts are been improved and there is even a rugby clubhouse on site. The chapter here is associated with the Auray rugby club which one of my son’s tried it a while back with no continuation as wanted to be starter and no way need to start on the bench.

football/soccer stands in progress!

The city of Pluvigner page tells you and I translate with some updates of my own. The Goh Lanno sports complex which consists of 2 rooms for handball, basketball, volleyball, tennis, rollerblading … They also include 1 dojo (judo, karate …), 1 dance hall (Breton classical …) as well as a gym hall.  Outdoors, associations use 5 football fields/pitches (2 clubs), 1 rugby pitch, 1 athletics stadium and 2 tennis courts on the Goh Lanno site. In the short term, it has change one football field into a rugby field.  The stabilized football field will be made of synthetic turf for even greater use. Last but not least is the cycling club, which uses the evolution platform of the Goh Lanno complex for its cycling school for children.
