  1. [quote user="nectarine"]...  It was three days before anyone noticed and changed the entry back ....[/quote]

    That's probably because there are so many other people changing things 'just for mischief'.  Perhaps if there weren't, someone would have time to add the information you seek?

  2. [quote user="londoneye"]Err not sure of any of those !

    Will have internet access via work.   If by ISP provider you mean ~Wanadoo ??? then don't know if they have webmail.

    Doh !  

    [/quote]

    Don't worry Londoneye. It's just as Timco said. Go to Wanadoo and there'll be a log in box waiting for you. [:)]

    To get onto the forum it'll be the same. You'll need your user name, password and possibly email address.

  3. [quote user="nectarine"]I don't know which is more efficient but I can tell you - there is nothing as cosy as snuggling up in front of a proper fire.  Gas and central heating doesn't come anywhere near that .....[/quote]

    Well, I love my woodburner but I love my sisters living flame gas fire too. It's so realistic that after 15 years I still chuck things on it, and it's a lot easier to control the heat then it is with a woodburner.

    One issue with a gas fire for Mr and Mrs Cat would be visible pipes (no wooden floorboards to hide them in).

  4. [quote user="Colonel Mustard"]I have just come back from town, where the kids were having a jolly time celebrating Mardi Gras. They painted their faces, threw petards, sprayed passers-by with gunge (who, expecting this, wore filthy clothes) and a good time was had by all. Then I read that a centuries-old pancake race in Ripon has been cancelled because of elf and safety fears. [/quote]

    Don't worry Colonel, as one great tradition dies, another is born. I just received this from England.

    As

    you

    know

    Sheffield

    people

    call

    the

    stew

    hash

    'ash',

    and

    do

    not

    appear

    to

    know

    it

    is

    actually

    'hash'.

    We

    have

    just

    heard

    two

    of

    the

    staff

    discussing

    how

    today

    is

    Ash Wednesday,

    so

    they

    will

    celebrate

    by

    having

    'ash.

    Twinks I'm sure Ron thought I was in this thread, earlier, and that the kiss was intended for me.[:)]

  5. Hi[:)]

    There are so many Villeneuves!

    Could you add your Department name in the 'location' section of your profile, so other forum members have a better idea where you are in order to reply to your query?

  6. [quote user="TWINKLE"]This page will be shiny and Twinkly when all the mods wake up if it's the last thing I do![/quote]

    [:D]

    Lunatic!

    The last thing you do should be to say goodnight to me.

    I'm concerned for the mental and physical health of certain members when they log on in a few hours though.[:)]

  7. [quote user="TWINKLE"]

    [:)]

    No we went to L'Isle d'Oleron - it was lovely thanks for asking! 

    [/quote]

    I was AWOL when you originally posted.

    I'm only replying now to wreck your current claim to fame, of being the last poster in 16 consecutive threads.

    Call me a meanie if you like.[Www]

  8. It's a very interesting question Macky and I'm glad you've replicated it here.

    If people could say the ages their children were when they started school in French, I think that'd be helpful.

    We toyed with the idea of moving here when my son was aged 11/12 but for me, at that time, it already felt 'too late' for him.

    So, I have no personal experiences to add to the thread, but I'm really hoping for a better response than the question got on TF.

  9. [quote user="Dick Smith"]I refuse to answer, so that reduces the total by 1, so you can be.

    [/quote]

    Yes, please count me out too. [:)]

    I saw Dick (for the first time in a while) the other night and forgot to say hello.

    So, hello Dick.

  10. [quote user="Jura"]How on earth could you NEVER see the museum unless you ignored it's presence?

    I just suspect they have changed the conditions of access... [/quote] (my bold)

    And I suspect you have answered your own question.
