  1. Hi Rod, could you name some writers, any Jack vance or Arthur.C.Clarke in there ? Thanks, Post edited by the Mods. Please do not post personal information on the boards.
  2. Thanks again for the info, Théière, after adding the javel once more and waiting for two days my combined chlorine is now back to 0.2 ppm.
  3. yes, I have started this week using the chlorinetablets which contain the stabiliser to get some CYA in my pool, that's why my CYA is now 6 ppm where as a week ago it was zero. Will keep this up intill I reach 30 ppm. But to get rid of the combined chlorine I need to keep on adding more chlorine extra, maybe even 3-5 lters of javel 9.6% in one go, is this correct ? Must say that I'm a bit sorry I started with the superchlorination, because the combined level was only 0.5 ppm after having the pool in use for two months and the water has been christalclear, and still is, all that time. Just wanted to do it right and avoid problems later. Thanks again for your input, Théière
  4. Thank you Théière, because I use an electrolysolateur My CYA is very low, only 6 ppm. My T/A is low, below mesuring range. But My pH is good, 7.33, and very stable, it has not fluctuated more then a tenth in two months.
  5. A question regarding Superchlorination. I want to get rid of the combined chlorine in my pool ,30 M2, and I have read that I can do this by adding 10 times more chlorine than the amount of combined chlorine. So my free chlorine was 1.0 and the total chorine was 1.5 ppm, giving a combined chlorine of 0.5 ppm I added 2 liters of bleach 9.6% which is a total of 6 ppm chlorine if my calculations are correct. But the day after my free chorine was 4.3 ppm and the total 5.2 ppm, so the combined chlorine was increased to 0.9 ppm ! Did the same again, adding 3 liters of bleach, but again my combined chlorine has increased. Am I doing something wrong, or can you not superchlorinate with bleach, or have I still added too little perhaps ? Would very much appreciate some guidance, thanks in advance, paul&carin
  6. Hi Jan,   we live 5 km away from Pompadour and would be interested in some of your stones, do you still have some left? Maybe you can send me an email, thanks,  
  7. No, no, they are tight, I should know, being Dutch.    
  8. Last year we had a visit from the Gendarmes asking us to fill in these forms, and we had another visit of them last week. We have a B&B in the Correze and apparently the Gendarmes are concerned about possible "terrorists" from the Pays Basque visiting the region to plot their evil deeds. We have not yet complied to do this, because it seems that we are one of the few, if not the only, in our neighbourhood who have been asked to do so.  
  9. Hi, we have used the following one, it's in the Correze. http://www.francehouses.com/ Good luck,
  10. Hi Kristine, we have a B&B in the south-west, in the correze, Limousin. Dogs are very wellcome with us. Kind regards
  11. Hi Linda, we run a B&B and two selfcatering cottages on your side of Pompadour. This would make it some 10 miles from Uzerche. You can find all details on our website as provided below. Good luck with the signing.
  12. Here in the Correze they tend to sell the old sleepers at the station. Look for them at the end of the year. Good luck
  13. Hi Arnold, I started the thread about looking for a B&B in Normandy or Brittany and am sorry to have created a stir. But I don't see anything wrong with the question posed on a forum for B&B owners and I was expecting and even hoping for other B&B owners to respond. In the end it helps me give better service to my guests in a simple and harmless way.  
  14. Good morning all, we run a B&B in the Limousin and in the beginning of september we have a Dutch couple who after staying with us want to spend a few nights in a B&B in Brittany or Normandy. They asked us if we now of any nice places to stay and sadly we dont, but perhaps any of you do ? Thanks in advance
  15. Hi Chris, I have sent you a personal message.  
  16. Hi Martin and Joan, I have sent you a private email Regards Paul and Carin www.lagrangevieille.com
  17. I agree with winterbunny. We have our website in 4 languages which we are able to speak and we found that if you provide te language on your website the guests expect they will be able to communicate in their prefered language. So translating just the keywords might bring some awkward moments if you don't talk the talk. Paul and Carin www.lagrangevieille.com  
  18. Hi Arnold, we are based in the correze and had new septic tanks under the new regulations installed 3 years ago. They told us they would come and check every two years but I thought this being France they will probably forget. Turned out they did come, but also they checked all the septics in the village and they are all from before the new regulations. However none of them have to be upgraded to meet the regulations. So I think you will be ok. Paul and Carin La Grange Vieille  www.lagrangevieille.com

  20. Hi Brian, just know the one course, it's near Aubazine in the correze. Beautiful course next to a lovely little town, greenfee was 35 Euro. Paul and Carin www.lagrangevieille.com
  21. Hi Wully, you can have a look at www.lagrangevieille.com It's a B&B in the Correze near pompadour. Good luck   Lilly
  22. Have a look at www.francehouses.com , this is a dutch immobilier a lot of our english guests found useful. As for which part of the Correze you should look at I can not tell, come and take a look and then decide. I don't think there is a specific part to avoid. Good luck Paul and Carin La Grange Vieille
  23. Try Pieter and Wilma at www.francehouses.com They are a Dutch couple who give excellent service and have many English costumers. We bought through them and the after-sales service leaves nothing to be desired. Paul and Carin La Grange Vieille
