A nice little Saviem parked in Scaer,

Nice photo there Pete. Great backdrop very French village Scaer.
I spent a fair big of time there back in 1990/91. We had some dedicated loads out of the poultry factory just outside the village, mostly fresh to Ready Roasted in Aberdare. Everyone there was friendly.
Just a short trip to Roscoff, otherwise up to Cherbourg.
Fergie may remember if it was Burgoines!

Paul… If the factory you went to was on the edge of the town just off the Chateauneuf-du-faou road, then it closed around 2005 /06…There is now a huge one on the Gourin to Scaer road along side the airfield “Les volailles de Keranna” it’s a big operation. “Doux” is the biggest chicken producers in Britagne, with several factories in Finistère, and a huge export market however, there is a decline, and they have made redundancies this year…one of them is a friend of ours who has been there over 32 years… If you ever got to the town when you were here, it has changed very little, you’d still recognise it I’m sure, a few bars restaurants, and cafes remain, just, and a lot of shops closing up, but that seems the norm for Europe at the moment…
