It is a "bizarre" formula but I do not know if it is the one you found;the UK used to have the "RAC" horse power rating which only took into account the bore of the engine and not the stroke.
-
For "UK" read "EU".Thanks.

The "PUISSANCE" of a vehicle originally sold in France may not be the same as that of what appears to be an equivalent vehicle sold in other UK countries.To get a particularly good "CV" rate for taxation purposes(original tax not road tax) there were many changes made to the spec. of vehicles sold in France,such as different g/boxes,final drives because of the method of calculation.

Artic trailers(semi-trailers)come under different legislation to stand-alone trailers.
-
It also depends on the quality of the copper pipe;some is so thin-walled that it is better to use elbows.

Must be a friend of "MARIE".

Yes;the threads should also be different but there have been problems with some of the less responsible(and cheap) suppliers filling cylinders with the wrong gas.In the past;the regulators were set at different pressures but the latest ones are between the two settings and can be used for either(so it says in my instruction leaflet.)
-
A butane regulator has a female connector;a propane a male connector.

According to Freeview in the UK,my house cannot receive a good enough signal thro' my aerial but I went ahead and installed a set-top box anyway-pictures are excellent.Where am I-wilds of Scotland?;N0-county town-30 miles from London.

Credit Agricole is not one bank;it is a federation of small banks-some just one branch.I have been with Credit Lyonnaise for 20 yrs. now and have never had any problems(at any of their branches).
-
Compression fittings are available but only in French sizes.
-
The hoses used to connect are marked with a date and must be changed regularly and it is worthwhile getting an auto-changeover valve which switches to a fresh cylinder when the first becomes empty.Make sure there is plenty of ventilation-particularly at floor level.

I received a letter, posted in the South of France on the 19th., in Essex on 21st.am.

I had a friend with a farmhouse;he had a woodburning cooker that supplied his hot water/central heating as well.I can't remember what it was called but "Volcane"rings a bell.However what I can remember was the amount of wood it got thro' but then he did have his own forest.
-
Modern cars probably only take two turns lock to lock:in the past,some cars used four and a half turns.Also modern PAS is what it says-assistance;I can remember early systems that were so over-servoed that there was no feel at all.

Axminster???
-
Not just UNESCO,most of the UN and a lot applies to the EU lot in Brussels and don't forget all the other politicians-remember the Uk ones who all get free parking at UK airports(and a lot more).
-
What you would call in the UK Single Vehicle Type approval but what you would go thro' is a simpler version of that;parts are checked to see that they conform with the legislation that was in force when the vehicle was first registered.
-
The Doyenne(opposite the Welsh Pub) but it is tiny.

-
Double pole circuit breakers and remote fuses;in the UK,the fuse is in the plug;there's no safety device in the socket(except for shaver sockets).
-
So who drinks all the water?;at least half of our local supermarket is taken up with bottled water.

Now they're all German!!!
