My Stream 93i - Rs 2,3,4 all OK.

Another vote for Roberts, a Stream 93i this time!

My multi weed and grass patch is left to the charge of my Robot mower. Several times a week it exits its 'kennel', bumbles around the lawn for the day, pausing only to recharge itself. At the end of the work time it reverses back into its charge station to await another day. The only real mowing I do is our awkward front lawn with a lightweight battery hand pushed job.

If it is not too late- our Panasonic set has behaved very well for some years. Recommended.

have a look at this picture, extracted from a long article in Charente Libre regarding overpricing energy renovations...note prices for windows. http://images.charentelibre.fr/2017/03/09/58c10ac57971bba33d975822/default/1000/photovoltaique-sweetcom-se-defend.jpg

With ADMR I have had holiday replacements that are chômeurs, again all paperwork is taken care of, just a signature needed to certify things. I do remember, long ago, one lady we employed did not take her full entitlement to holidays - she had an Official Call at 8AM from assorted foncs and was told to take her days off immediately!

There are contract forms to download on the CESU website, with details of where needed You do not have to go to the PE to register as an employer. A possible simpler route for regular help is to go via your local ADMR who do all the paperwork. The only thing I do is to pay our 'lady who does' every month by cheque. Pay rates are similar, i.e. 8 hours - E66.72 plus E45.24 charges.

The dealer will normally do everything - he will possibly quote a package price for 'clé en main'. Assurance co will do it over the Phone and do paperwork later. It will just carry on at the new price.

Might be worth clearing all your cookies before accessing the site again. A lot of the on line selling sites seem to play silly b's if you keep accessing them looking for different prices etc. Even better - try another computer...!

Find yourself an English speaking notaire, You do not have to use the same one as the purchaser, the charges are split so no more expensive.

With our recent move the Notaire asked for his part of the charges with no deposit being asked for, BUT the 10% was included in the compromis.
