[Hornets]

Hi,

We have just built an arbri in

which to live over the summer until our house is ready. It is made of

'Douglas' wood. last night we had a visitation from a hornet. Nothing

aggressive but they do look formidable. Tonight we had two coming in as

the light was failing just before a storm. Should we do anything? Any

ideas how to repel these insects?

Ta,

[dental crowns]

Hi,

We are new here, and have only just had to see the dentist.  He tells me I need a crown (half tooth broken off) which will cost me 550 euros for a metallique, or 750 for an aesthestique.  I know that I can get some of the money back from the social security and my mutuelle, but does this sound a 'normal' sort of price to you, or should I get another quote from another dentist?  Thanks.
