Thanks for your reply it was really helpful  

Thanks for those two sites, one was in English and proved quite useful

I've been offered work but I have to set up a Micro Business.Can anybody tell me what percentage of may earnings I would have to pay out in deductions or is there a web site I can look at ,preferably in English, as my French leaves a lot to be  desired. Also if anyone has any tips ,advise or things to lookout for I'd be very grateful. 

Thanyou both for the info, have just looked at our contract again and found something about a f/s,but the computers translation leaves alot to be desired. Will have a word with my good neighbour Luis(that's how he spells his name).

We moved into our little cottage almost a year ago, and decided to trace the pipe work from the loo to find the fosse septic. After alot of holes dug I located a large, about 5ft in diameter, concrete slab but it does not have an inspection cover. Does anyone know if this is infact a fosse septic,albeit an old type?
