198. Oriental inspiration

This other house of the main street of Fourmies has another style as others. It is possible the style comes from the trend for Orient and Africa in the nineteeth century. So that this house has an almost oriental decoration. As I already said, the style of the houses of Fourmies is very eclectic....

If you open the eyes looking in the high in Fourmies, you can see many things... you 'd never seen before.

196. Little carrussels.

This little carrussels were in a shop of the Main Street of Fourmies. They are often given to just married people for marriages.

If I am publishing now more pictures of Fourmies than of other places of the Avesnois or of Pont-sur-Sambre, the reason is I'm working now in Fourmies.

195. The Friterie is an institution of North of France.

In the North of France like in Belgium people like to eat "Frites". They are potatoes cut in the length and coked with much oil. The "baraque à frites" is a North of France institution. There you can buy frites and some other warm dishes and eat it on the street or at home or in the car before going home. I photographed this "baraque à frites" in Fourmies. The baraque à frites is also called "Friterie".

192. Summer reflections on the river.

An evening ambiance on the river Sambre in Pont. The view is taken from the blue bridge of Quartes. Unto the town district of the Cité Notre-Dame which you can see behind the trees on the right. The evening lights are burning so that you can see where is the Cité by the few little yellow points you see in the trees when you click on the picture to make it bigger.

In front of the theater of Fourmies is this nice restaurant called "Le St Louis", where people can eat a meal and drink a little before going to the theater or to a concert in the theater. Here is the theatre and here a photo of the house on the right of the St Louis.

190. La Maison du Conseil des Prud'hommes (Fourmies)

Here you can see the house of the counceel of the "Prud'hommes", in Fourmies. In the nineteen century it was the town hall, but another bigger townhall is now to find on the market square. Here is the to-day town hall. The ancient town-hall here is a beautiful building, but it was also the theatre of dramatic events at May, 1st, 1891, as the armee killed 9 men who was making a demonstration for the day of work on the 1st of May.

Nowadays it is a house with a justice court for work purpuses, like when a worker lost his job unfairly. Then the worker or the employee comes to this court to get his job again. Or to ask money to his boss for the unfair treatment.

188. The skyscrapers of Pont-sur-Sambre

Also in very small towns are sometimes some "skyscrapers". However those of Pont-sur-Sambre, built in the sixties/seventies have no more than 4 or 5 floors and are not high. But it is not good for the landscape.

Early evening sky over the Cité Bel Air in Pont with light clouds.

183. Above the roofs.

This roofs are behind the Cité Bel Air and from this little paltform before you have a good sight on the Rue de Quartes which goes from the townhall to the church of Quartes. The rectangle building in the background right which one can see over the houses is the ancient electricity production unity from which I have already spoken in other posts.

182. Water Reserve

I don't know exactly what's this water pump or reserve is exactly, but I saw these agricultural tool behind the Cité de Bel air in Pont-sur-Sambre. It is water for my lost Duck Duckie. Perharps she's coming again to my blog !

I'm sorry not to answer on the comments you put on my blog but the entry to the comments of my own blog is blocked on my blog, so that I cannot give answers. Thank you at Szentes Daily Photo to show me other ducks as my lost Duckie. A script comes each time I want to look at my blog on the Temporary Internet Files of my computer that make that I cannot look at Duckie and give her to eat, and I cannot open the comment window to answer the comments. On the other blogs I cannot comment as Perle de Rosée. The comment falls each time.

Lost Duckie

I cannot see Duckie (my virtual bunnyhero duck) anymore on my blog. Perhaps it is in cause of my IE6 brownser. Can you see her ? I am sad without her.

177. Schoolchildren avaiting mothers

Fourmies has a real trade-life, the trade-center Carrefour at the edge of the town, and the main trade-street St Louis with its side-streets are lively commercial places with many shops. Here you can see a shop-window where these puppets seem to be awaiting on their mothers to go at school. This picture for the school-beginning... (mistake in the title : awaiting)

176. Our Lady in Wallers-Trélon.

This statue is in a hole of a wall in Wallers-Trélon, very high on the wall of a house. The stone is always blue stone, like for almost all the houses of the village, I don't know what is the stone of the statue. Like I explained it many times.

Other photos of the same village :
1, 2, 3.

175. The Florentine at night (Aulnoye-Aymeries).

This old and tall lady is called Florentine and lives in Aulnoye-Aymeries. She stays always as the same place and has no legs. In the night it is enlighted, so that we can see her in all the surrounding aera. It is part of the ancient railway station for merchandise trains and this tower had to serve in the good directing of the trains. Now it went to a cultural center. Every year in August there is a big rock festival in Aulnoye-Aymeries and the young people who came from the fare (in train for one euro from all the region) had something like a camping place at its feet. The big festival is called "Les nuits Secrètes"., the secret nights and there are many parts of the towns where you can find for example little rock concerts in for example a garden. There is also a big stage near the railway station and the post where the entrance is free of said better there is no entrance, you come to the square and you see and listen.

However,in normal times it is in the night all desert around it so that it looks very strange and frightening there. Like on the photo where this old lady the Florentine looks at you in the dark.

173. Reflection of the theater in classic windows.

To-day I was in Fourmies for the teacher's school beginning because now I am working in a college in Fourmies. Here in the serie "Reflections" of the City Daily Photos, I show this reflection of the theater (photos of the theater here : 1, 2). in the glasses of an old house with classic look (but of the 19th century, almost all houses in the street St Louis are houses of the 19th century in a very eclectic style : oriental, classic, or Renaissance, or North of France's master houses. This house which is now a house of councellors and athorneys for trade law, has keeped its classic frontipiece and its columns.
