Best of luck.

I can barely read underground station names and which toilet I should use in Russien but if you google French Embassy Moscow you should find a detailed page about working visas for France

Lapeyre list it. I have not seen it in the other DIY sheds such as castorama or Leroy Merlin. Suspect a old Volvo estate may be on the shopping list. http://www.lapeyre.fr/amenagements/les-revetements-muraux/les-panneaux/panneaux-chene-blois.html#0

No it is not a simple swop. Stage 1 - Friend proves their cannot recruit locally person with appropriate skills. Stage 2 - He applies to sponsor you. Stage 3 You apply for work visa in your country of residence / home country

I think and hope they are separately owned: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS_Components http://uk.rs-online.com/web/generalDisplay.html?id=branchNetwork http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/banksandfinance/privateequity/8111074/Buy-out-giants-Blackstone-Advent-and-CVC-circle-Maplin.html http://www.maplin.co.uk/ Maplin opened and the best and most entertaining electronics business in Kingston upon Thames closed. In contrast to RS they sell packaged over priced stuff. They even make Radio Shack look a good bet.

If I had a house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright whose appearance was going to be wrecked by a large dish I would spend the money. If because of other buildings etc blocking the path so satellites I would pay the money Otherwise I would install a larger dish Broadly it gets you 80cms performance from a smaller dish at a higher cost
-
We are just North off Libourne and although a minidish will work here we opted for 80cms. Slightly harder to align Significantly better signal quality Holds on to the signal in very heavy rain etc much longer Copes with marginal channels like Vintage TV and Classic FM better. Replacement LNBs off the shelf at local Hypermarket rather than mail order from UK
-
If it were atall possible I would cover it with concrete screed, plywood or hardboard then tile or put down laminate on top

No you are in bad company I could not understand it either. -
For prices keep and eye on the local publicity. If the car is a popular French model local Max Auto, Feur Verte, Renault or PSA outlets frquently have offers. I paid well under € 180 fitted.

Beaux Villages Estate Agents
Anton Redman replied to Oboulez's topic in Finding/Owning French Property
Anybody pass through either 33580 MONSEGUR or 24320 VERTEILLAC regularly but given their sizes possible holidays have simply coincided. -
Private Parking near Bordeaux Airport ?
Anton Redman replied to cathysl's topic in Travelling to/from France
In contrast to UK Airport parking is reasonable at Bordeaux. If you are still looking we are 45 minutes north of the airport and could do delivery pick up from the airport. Please PM with Email or 'phone numbers to discuss -
Cold evenings - Hot nights - Inverters / air con etc
Anton Redman replied to just john 's topic in The Complete France Post Bag
Ours is 3 Kw we run it for perhaps four hours in the evening for a couple of months a years. It is installed in an upstarirs hallway and chills three bedrooms room enough to make sleeping pleasant during heatwaves. Cost depends on roof insulation and how cold you want the rooms. I never liked the US model were you needed a sweater when you worked in their offices despite high temperatures outside -
Yes about € 24

Check out where the Greenwich Meridian runs

You have clearly never been eight years old and back stage at the Windmill

French freight except livestock and perishables baned from movement 10 pm Saturday till 10 pm tonight. There was more movement on stage at the Windmill than France this weekend.

I have discovered the key differences between UK and French Estate agents. UK estate agents resemble vampires, broadly they need to sell a house a week to live and are highly focused on this. However they dare not cross the channel for fear of garlic. French estate agents in contrast resemble zombies. There are signs they may once have been alive but some key areas of the brain have suffered irreparable harm. Particulars of the property change rooms moved floors and changed size. Dates of birth seemed variable. Weeks passed without response to simple questions and it took ages to put anything up on the web.

Around us every one who can afford one drives a Mercedes Benz normally between 10 and 20 years old. Paint pre faded

Anyone Have Any Experience of Tutelle..............
Anton Redman replied to Alex H's topic in French Legal Issues
None but the French Government website has a reasonable summary. http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/F2120.xhtml -
There is no seeming about it they are in decline. Peugeot wrecked a good reputation for reliability with an ill advised move to structured wiring and dual mass fly wheels and Citroen shared the same problems plus a few of its own devising. Is that a Plurial or a Pluvial. Renault finally seem to be reaping the benefits of being France's Ford. The Twingo II faired so badly at the clinic that they hastily redesigned it be a standard Eurobox because real men would not be seem dead driving it.
