  1. This might have reared its head in the past, but sorry if I am repeating something.

    We are looking to stash our savings - we will need an income whilst we live in France. However, we have yet to find mention of a savings account and roughly what sort of interest we can expect.

    Our choice is to leave the savings in an account in Uk and draw out as needed per year, putting that money into our current account in France.

    Stash it into something like income savings bonds, or

    Stash it entirely into a French account, do they charge for savings accounts?.

    I do not seem to see much advertising or promotion of French savings accounts, do they exist, do they have an account that pays interest per month/year?

    Where do we start looking. We have a CA current account, but CA do not seem forthcoming.

    Thanks

  2. I must be sooo sad, I never even knew these games existed! I thought my life was great with difficult spider solitaire. Having discovered these I can see my evenings will be spent slightly differently, when the OH is on nights....

    Thank you all so much for letting me discover this amazing world of forget the washing/ironing/cleaning, far more entertaining!

     

  3. Bonsoir mes amies,

    Sorry I've been away so long, first a visit to France - wasn't the snow in Limoges great last week Krusty, did you see it?Then I was given a virus, - not me the computer that is. Hope this finds you all well.

    So Frenchie, how many songs have we left from Les Beatles? I think the pic is swell. For this pic I think how about  Girl, Girl - I can not find that on the system but i am sure will be a copy of it somewhere.

  4. Sorry Will, not been able to reply  up to now, as said before, Oh is from Yorkshire and RW is not!

    Mind you you can take the man out of Yorskshire, but not Yorkshire out of the man. He is a gentleman, and although will be hitting the half century this week, I know I'd rather have mine and be poor than Rw and rich (I think).

  5. No. Mme Poivre, no problems

    Good eveing all, Red Riding Hood has her cloak for Book Day, OH home from Yorkshire (he's 50 next week!), sprog out at Sea Cadets Meeting,oh the joys of the peace of the household.

    It was certainly a Hard Days' Night. Can anyone find the Peter Seller's version - as done in the style of Laurence Olivier, one of the best I feel!!!

  6. Hi,

    just a fleeting visit inbetween work - have top make a red-riding cloak for a friend (Book Day) by tomorrow. Frenchie - all the musics from the 60's was great, and the late 50's as well, even some of the early 70's. I got lost in the 80's but with sprog now into my music I'm listening to more modern stuff as well.

    Catch you later perhaps, have a good day, weather here not too bad at present. Cat  Stevens - Morning has broken (Rick Wakeman playing piano).

     

  7. Just received this one from a Friends in Cyprus, from their friends in Australia:

    Caller calling Australia:

    GOOD MORNING, WELCOME TO AUSTRALIA

    Press 1 if you can speak English, press 2 to disconnect until you can -

    only the Australians can come up with that one!

    He also sent me the pics and the story about the lady with the hissing computer  that suddenly wnet dead. When the engineer opened it up there was literally a snake inside! I  have pics to prove (Australia again).

     

  8. I have recently been told about new pension changes in 2010

    I understand about the qualifying years - is it 30/32 years for both men and women? However, I am told the changes will bring significant changes to the payment of pensions for the future.

    Does anybody actually know what the changes are (in short form) and how they will affect people in a few years time?

    Thank you
