  1. You should have kept the piece of paper your SIM card came stuck to, Chancer.

    It's 666, but apparently 123 works too....  it also shows your PUK number should you get locked out ! Also Free sent you an email with your Identifiant and mot de passe for https://mobile.free.fr/moncompte/

    where you can see your account.

    I'm still wondering if my phone will pick up a network when we're in England for a week in July, but I can't find any news yet (2€ job).

    Maybe Norman will get in first, so I'll post this...

  2. Hello,

    Do you not have a contact telephone number, or email address of a member of staff - probably those of a teacher of English ?

    I ask, because at my wife's lyçée in Guérande, the assistants always contacted her, and she had a permanent annual arrangement whereby the assistant would be met and welcomed on arrival, and lodged with one of the teachers or colleagues to begin with. When they were settled, they could then look for their own accommodation, always helped and guided by the teachers. Some shared with other assistants in the area.

    Maybe they were/are lucky, and it's certainly a far cry from my experience of arriving at the massive door of a Napoleonic lyçée in Albi in 1967 to find that noone was expecting me or even knew I existed ! Happy days - it got better, really..

    Good luck, anyway !

  3. Or even '.... My God, what have I done to heaven/the gods, that I should be seen as the lowest of the low ?'. Or maybe '...considered/taken for...' the lowest of the low.

    I don't know 'seen' or 'considered' by whom, as I don't have the context. By his/her friends ? the world ?

    Your choice.

  4. Hello Dave,

    I don't remember the TV setup for Freebox v4, as I never used it, but assuming the Free screen is the same as or similar to FB v5 HD, then :

    Go to the Paramètres screen, where you will see boxes for Informations Générales - this a basic diagnostic of what's working or not TV, phone, TNT...

    Also Informations Réseau which gives Etat, ADSL, Réseau and Wifi. The ADSL screen gives the current débit up and down, atténuation etc.

    I hope you can find the necessary diagnostique from this.

  5. 'Cela ne passera jamais'

    Could be said by optimists contesting Guéant's speed trap ideas - 'That will never be accepted' - 'They'll never get away with that' - as in that idea/proposal/motion will never pass/be passed/ will never get a majority vote.

    Could you please tell us what this text is that you're translating. As others have stated, 'Context is All'. Odd extracts are untranslatable.

    Good luck,

    Andrew 44
