It's time to get your winter wardrobe out, as the weather's taken a turn for the worse this week.
What's new?
Monaco's new multi-media library may not yet have a home, but that isn't delaying improvements to the service. Plans are afoot for the Mediatheque to introduce a single library card that allows users to borrow from all 3 libraries, Louis Notari (books), Jose Notari (CDs and records), and video library. A new website is also planned.
We're coming up to 11th November, a time when we remember all those who are, or have been, involved in armed conflict. As usual, the Royal British Legion is raising money for current and ex-servicemen, women and their families. Visit the website for a list of places in Monaco selling poppies.
What's in the diary...
Thursday: Fun for all the family.
Friday: Jazz in the library.
Saturday: Ballets in the opera house.
Sunday: France's big day.
Coming up next week, Danes get angry, kids get time off.
