Funny how both Mick and Keith have recreated a piece of England abroad : a nice large house surrounded by nature and a rather clement UK-like climate where they live.

Don't I'm a Republican! (not in the American meaning though)
What I meant is - unlike the U2 guys - Mick didn't buy a mansion on the warmer and sunnier French Riviera. Hence my remark about choosing a location not unlike Sussex or Devonshire.
Same goes for Keith who could have opted for warm Florida instead of CT etc etc.

Mick when he was a teenager spent a summer vacations with his parents at Amboise. They stayed at the camping which is located on an island on the Loire River, in front of the Castle and not far from Le Clos Luce ,the place where Leonardo de Vinci live. Amboise is located 10 minutes drive from Poce-sur -Cisse. I believe Mick really enjoy the Loire Valley during that summer trip with his parents so he bought that place in 1982.
I used to live in Amboise from 1972 to 1976. It is a beautiful region.
