Get set to spit your chestnuts during the Fête de la Châtaigne

ON Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 October, 2015, Villefranche du Perigord will be hosting its popular festivities marking the chestnut, and if available the cèpe mushroom.

Over the two days there will be chance to try a variety of chestnut and cèpe delicacies, as well as take in local music and dance, and don't forget the chestnut spitting competition on Sunday - it always draws the crowds.

I think I might bypass the Chestnut spitting competition.
