Hello! After a summer at Panat we are posting more pages: see Recent pages 

Why do we call our site "Ranums' Panat Times"? The answer is simple: in theory (if not always in practice) we have abundant "time" to read and think during our summers in a tiny French hilltop village, Panat,  situated in an area of south-central France that has been described as "the lost upland" ("lost" in the sense that few tourists find their way into its valleys and plateaus).
