  1. I notice that you made no reference to how you would finance the deal. If it is dependant on the sale of your current home, there would need to be a clause suspensive, which some sellers would be adverse to.
  2. I really like topinambour, but the resulting gas could fell a small army in the next village for around 2 days! I love aubergines though, grilled with olive oil and garlic, or made into aubergine caviar, yum. And celeriac is another favourite, so I must be Mint's evil, opposing twin.
  3. I contacted HMRC several times before getting the answer I was looking for. I duly sent off the forms late last year, and I had an email to tell me that I should expect a reply in August this year. So I now mustn't pop my clogs before another 4 years have passed.
  4. We are currently half-way through a lovely Morbier from SuperU. So far so good...
  5. When you say based on genetics ALBF, do you mean if our ancient ancestors were of a particular nationality?
  6. I saw that Mint, apparently the lack of access to a telephone contravened their fundamental rights.
  7. We were on the autoroute today, there are still closures, but mostly where they are clearing up the mess left behind by the farmers.
  8. The sugar is for the first recipe, sweet crepes. I prefer the second, savoury, recipe.
  9. Who heard Attal's speech this lunchtime? Do you think that the measures he announced will be enough to appease the farmers?
  10. I make them at least once every year, I nicked these recipes from the Guardian, they are pretty much foolproof.
  11. Ours is not a Super U, but a U Express. I can't bring myself to say the full name in French, so it's just our U
  12. Yes Mint, I've seen our first lizard here too, and the first fly in the house, and the daffodils are in bud too. It doesn't feel right, and I'm sure it will come back to bite us in the bum!
  13. It's a bit of a minefield. When I was at school, many moons ago, it was obligatory, for both boys and girls, to do one term of home economics, needlework, woodwork and metalwork. After that term, we could choose our curriculum. Nowadays we have sadly lost a lot of these skills.
