Sheep dipping ain't for the fainthearted!
Organophosphates are one of the many chemical compounds of the sheep dip stuff which you put into the 'bath/dip' for the sheep. That was supposed to have caused problems to farmers using it with illness such as skin rash (where it splashed onto unprotected areas of skin) severe depression (some farmers committing suicide) lethargy and extreme fatigue (sort of the farming equivalent of the yuppy flu).
These organo phosphate have been taken off sale for this kind of 'spring wash' and sheep dipping is now a very rare occurence. Unfortunate at it was meant to kill the eggs and larvaes and crippy crawlies that had settle inside the fleeces of the animals and were causing them extreme discomfort.

Anyway in Thomas Hardy's time did they worry about all that health & safety lark?... and I don't think they would have had that chemical solution available then ...

They could try www.smoothhound.co.uk to find a B&B in London.
The area behind Marble Arch/Oxford Street is OK. Sussex Gardens/Paddington area or they can try this : Citadines Aparthotel Covent Garden London http://www.smoothhound.co.uk/a55890.html which has option of studio mini-appartements which for a family could a cheaper option.

Isn't it a Welsh assembly decision on how they spend their money, [/quote]
...which is allocated by Westminster as the Welsh Assembly - unlike the Scottish Parliament - doesn't yet have power to raise taxes ....

[I] I know someone who is English and has an Audi and lives near Limoges and goes back to UK at times and is on this forum from time to time.... Come to think of it I haven't seen him posting for a while......
I hope he is not the culprit .... [8-)]

Well that Audi is certainly famous eh?!...
If people have problems finding long term parking when they leave France to wherever they want to go to for whatever length of time... why don't they use a taxi service for the purpose of taking them to the airport?... or kindly ask a neighbour to help them to the airport?... thus leaving their precious car safely parked at their 'bijou résidence' ... It seems to me cheaper! than having to pay for all these parking tickets on the return to the 'bijou résidence'....
Oh silly me! there is no parking tickets and fines in fluffy France [;-)]

[quote user="Geordie girl"]Monsieur Quillan, ... you should apply for the position of School inspector, ....[/quote]
Non, non, non, il a dit 'God!' I think he should apply for the position of Chaplain Missionary. He would be sooo good at it ! He would thouroughly check all of the girls credentials first ! [Www] and these poor creatures need such a tremendous amount of spiritual and pastoral care.
Anyway no one noticed que j'avais fait le mur! Pheeww! Miss(Mr) Wooly never came, he went instead behind the bike shed to see Mr Pierre pah! Tant pis j'ai le train pour aller voir l'amour de ma vie! Mr Sarko qui avait mis SA main sur mon coeur [:$]. Même que Lady C and Miss Frenchie et toutes les autres elles étaient jalouses qu'elles m'ont mis en colle! [:@]

And going off with Miss Missy...
What an evening....

[quote user="sweet 17"]
...... and invite Miss Wooly into your office and ask her to bare all. Tell him there shall be no hiding place! [/quote]
Lady C, I will also come to your office as you need another witness to confirm if Miss Wooly is ... a he a she or an it ?...
Mental note to self : mustn't forget my pince-nez as I am so myope [:$] Woops... I forgot I have invited Miss (Mr?) Wooly into my office this evening that he can explain a little matter of Inglish langwage. I can investigate then [6]
Wonder where (s)he's gone since (s)he was given the appointment of Hed of Inglish ? I hope (s)he is not behind the bike shed with the caretaker, explaining Lady Chatterley's Lover...

Cathy I'd get you a whip to shape up that motley crew you have assembled at your bespoke Academy.
and Katie doesn't need to change her avatar! That is Janis Joplin the best (second after our Twinkle of course!!) singer in the world.
[:D]

Chère Lady C,
My title at your esteemed academy for girls is French Mistress, that is the function for which you employme and that is what I seek to fulfil to the best of my abilities. Tools of my trade are, beside some ooolala, venez donc me voir ce soir, un certain je ne sais quoi, gallons of 'J'adore' Christian Dior perfume, etc... to wear a corset. Mr Sarkozy, your distinguished visitor doesn't know yet that he needs a Mistress until Moi! sera introduit à lui.
Avec mes profondes et respectueuses salutations, Veuillez agréer Lady C, l'expression de mes sentiments distingués en votre envers. Je vous souhaite par cette même lettre un très joyeux Noël et de bonnes fêtes de fin d'année.
Mademoiselle Missy. French Mistress.
[:D]

Giggling Moi[8-)] ?.... [;-)]
How can I giggle.. I am getting my corset on and my jarretière and my make-up all for the benefit of the vist of his Esteemed Mahjestie Monsieur Sarkozy [:D] One has to look one's best as there maybe a position at the Elysée to fill in .... that Carla is not certainly here for long if I have my way....

Lady C MacIntosh of MacIntosh ... I would like to apologise for my very rude Inglish Langwage used in one of my correspondance to you. I refer to the lewd interjection used to describe Colonel Head's biceps (ooolala! qu'ils sont beaux!) I know that you yourself Lady C do admire them too [6]
I blame [:$] the Hed of Inglish Langwage Miss Wooly for that... also you mustn't think that I do have a secret penchant for a fortifying nightcap... but I am a little confused [8-)]with the gender of Miss Wooly the Hed of Inglish Langwage.... Do you think he/she is secretly related to the Mrs Hinge and Bracket of Hinge and Bracket Hall down the lane.....

My worst Xmas present was from my MIL! Blessed are they [:'(]
It was the first Xmas she'd spent in my house and came ladden with food - since I never ever cooked in my life, me a trained chef! - ladden with presents for the kids.... Once she'd settled with her sherry (secretly laced with gin) she hands me an envelope with a big Happy Xmas from your MIL!! [+o(]
Open it! Open it! I didn't know WHAT to get you Dear! ....
so I did open the envelope....... to find a £50 note ........ which was no longer legal tender [:-))][:(][:'(][:@]
