  8. well we do need rain for topping up reservoirs as iamsure we willhave another dry summer. we will not be able to live without water but nature makes it'sown deciscion-apart from the unhelpful interference by humans-i.e. destruction of rain forests,depletion of ozone layer and many other factors.!!!!!!!   meanwhile get all your inside jobs done before spring takes over and demands your attention outside=grass growing quickly,weeds as well,i have just managed to complete some work which has taken 4 years to begin>!!!!! next week temperatures are up to 16 centigrade-daffodils pushing hard .you should be ___chitting ____-    your potatoes ihope i spelt that correctly> if you have not got them go and buy some water barrels as they are cheap at the moment. must go and check on the builder who arrived 1 year late to do some inside work as he was sick of working outside.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes you guessed it---in the rain. well at least the rain has done me a favour. aurevoir.[&]

[:D][;)][;)][D][&]Sorry stopped going to church long ago but hope the lads win all the way to take the cup like the heady days of the 50's.!!!!!!! well i hope you sort yoursef out as far as living in 2 places -it must be great but like many others i was forced to leave the n.e. when job. redundancies happened and moved around the u.k. and ended up two long in the s.e. of england . well enjoy your food we are still waiting for a good fish and chip or chinese restaurat to open near us although we had a weekend in paris near notre dam and were surrounded by japanese and chinese retaurants.the latter were great .
  11. [:@]Surely the forum admin. have control over adverts-if not we could be allowing disreputable companies and perhaps pornography to be sold on what people generally believe to be a respectable forum for those who wish to live in france and get some advice and not that telling you how to break the laws.

  13. How can you live near st .severe and alsoin Newcastle? thats a fib. i suppose you live in posh whitley bay and have a holiday home . i used to live in posh byker if you know where i mean but am now in the south of haute vienne -nearly as posh as byker but without the wall.!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really miss my fish and chips.!!! i am now an outcast in the middle of france .!! never mind we might beat chelsea this weekend inthe fa cup round.. well i did see a pig fly past the window last year> and its snowing a little bit now so get some wood for the fire and dream of the better times of childhood in the north east. tyrah pet.!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. went to garage and they connected the car to a computer and rectified fault-no charge. i am still puzzled as before computerisation i could do some work myself.is this the price we pay for modern cars?
  15. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN WHEN INDICATED ON CITROEN C5 SCREEN AND YOU HAVE LESS POWER THAN NORMAL? I SAW ON WATCHDOG TV TONIGHT A VOLVO PROBLEM WITH LOSS OF POWER WHICH WAS RATHER DISTURBING AS A DANGEROUS SITUATION COULD ARISE.
  16. Some of the men buying ladies underwear may be buying for thmselves.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!you never know.
  17. I also bought stihl-and would add use goggles =ear defenders and steel toed boots as well as hardhat and overalls/gloves. there are more accidents here than most places . one slip and you wont be cutting any more trees or logs. if unsure dont do it get advice rope any pieces of branches so they do less damage when falling-it may take a little more time but worthwhile.   I have stilhl 260--my second in 3 years because after using the first time after a winter break i picked up the can of petrol without oil additive and engine knackered.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! expensive error but wont do that again. also bought safety overalls and fs55 strimmer bought 180c electic to cut logs to length but brico table not very satisfactory-needed to turn log around as cut stopped due to design of bench. necessary to sharpen chain frequently for efficient work- bit of a pain when you have a lot to cut. uk also sent me copies free of charge of all handbooks.
  18. I was invited to join my local troiseme age and was surprised with their friendly attitudes,a good meal,wine if you wished and an afternoon of dancing plus one or two got up and rendered a song or a joke. despite having only a small amount of french yocabulary i enjoyed the companionship and have since been to many outings -all of which were not unruly .!!!!!!!!!!!!!! unlike many of my english compatriots they welcome all comers and are a generous and kind set of people. of course this can vary from area to area as i am sure someone will jump to the defence of my compatriots .!!!!!!!!!! who are only too eager to accept your hospitality and then disappear. I KNOW YOU DO NOT GIVE TO RECEIVE BUT AN AKNOWLEDGEMENT WOULD BE NICE. AGAIN THIS IS THE LUCK OF THE DRAW WHEN YOU LIVE IN A NEW AREA AND SEEK FRIENDSHIP. P.S. YOU JOIN AT 65 BUT I THINK THEY WOULD ACCEPT YOU AT 60 -SO TRY AGAIN AND I WILL SECOND YOU.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(NOT THAT IT IS A REQUIREMENT)
  19. I have had neuf for tel. and computer services without any problem since joining about 20 months ago,although my french is not great i managed to set up modem etc. and had a free video player on promotion which i gave to my daughter-oh. they did charge me 1 euro.
  20. DID NOT WANT TO REPAIR BUT THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD SOME IDEAS I COULD TRY-SUPPOSE I WILL WAIT FOR THE REAL SUPERMAN TO ASSIST. ONLY A JOKE  CLARKKENT. GOOGNIGHT TO ALL YOU READERS.
  21. thanks but since sony cost 825 euros i would have thought something could be done before binning it>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    ANY OTHER IDEAS ON FIXING PROBLEM.
  22.  I have a tv connected to a video and dvd using satelite for bbc etc. No problems for 4 years until last week when I could not video programmes nor watch dvd's.!!!!!!!!! I thought I had touched a change channel button accidentally which is close to the record video button. So I started again and let the tv automatically retune the channels,then connected the leads to the other equipment. I regained my video screen and video  and rcording was again possible.  However I still cannot see any picture when I insert dvd 's but have sound.!!! Any experts out there?as tv is normally rubbish and I have some xmas dvd's to watch. tv is toshiba bought in uk 7 years ago. video is  toshiba not as old. dvd is a sony 5years old and an expensive one. satelite receiver is panasonic.         .
  23. Is plagiarism a virus -sounds nasty -worse than my chesty cough.!!!!!!!!!!
  24. wished you had'nt asked that question about how wet it is as it started yesterday to rain that light miserable cold rain you get near cleetthorpes and newcastle where i was born-i should have stayed in a job abroad in trinidad --at least it is damn wet or dry none of this in between stuff. anyhow now is the time to do all those things you promised to do when you cannot get outside.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
