Hi,
You could take a look at this site.
www.federationpechedordogne.fr
It is in french, but may give a guide to areas to fish etc.

Hi All,
Just wondering if anybody has space in a van in the next few months coming from Chester to Haute Vienne ( 25 mins from Limoges airport).
We have a settee, chair and pouffe that we would like bringing over. We would of course contribute to the costs of the trip thereby cutting their travel costs.
Sizes are as follows.
Settee Length 4 foot 7, width 3 foot 4, height 2 foot 10
Chair Length 3 foot 2, width 3 foot 2, height 2 foot 10
Pouffe 17 x 15 inches square.
For further contact details, PM us or use the link below.
Thanks in advance,
Tony and Sue

Hi,
You could try this site that our french friends recommended. Great video, very friendly little fellow, if you have broadband, or at least 512k.
www.lachainemeteo.com/aff_ville.php?langue=fr&num_pays=63&nom_pays=france
Just choose your commune et voila!
Gives a 12 day forecast.........though not sure of the accuracy that far in advance.
Cheers,
Tony

Hi,
Follow this link to an article which we wrote last year concerning our experiences in setting for selling on a french market.
www.thisfrenchlife.com/thisfrenchlife/2006/11/selling_on_a_fr.html
Hope this gives you a better idea of some of the rules and regs- well those that apply in Haute-Vienne[:)]
Good Luck.

Hi,
Best one I've heard.
She asked me for a double-entendre, so, I gave her one!

Hi,
If you use the following link, this should allow you to browse and find your local AAPPMA site. This gives all rules and regulations pertaining to the various areas in France.
http://www.pecheur.com/resultats-rub-pagine.asp?rub=122
Or google aappma followed by your region.
Incidentally, in the Haute Vienne you can now get a 1 day permit for just 8 euros that covers you for a wide range of rivers and lakes. Very useful for the Fair Weather Angler
. I am not sure if this is nationwide yet.
Most Tabacs sell the permits, or sometimes supermarkets, and tackle shops of course.
Yours in sport,
Tony

Hi,
Here is a link that explains "all things fishing" for the Limousin. I think it is pretty well nationwide as far as rules and regs go. http://www.frenchentree.com/france-limousin-fishing/DisplayArticle.asp?ID=5047. Indeed the fishing pages on the french entree site is full of other info and there is a forum just for anglers too.
Hope this helps. Best regards,

Hi,
We are not far from you- Champagnac-La-Riviere. We got married in the village last year. It was very straightforward. We enquired at the Mairie and they gave us a booklet with all of the required paperwork that we had to get. A few cheques here and there and a bit of work on the "net"and we went back with all the various papers and Voila we picked a date with our Maire who was very flexible " Quand vous voulez"
We had the civil ceremony at the Mairie which I believe is the law.
Afterwards we went back to our house, with the horns blaring of course, and had a superb day.
We wish you all the best for your forthcoming marriage.
Hope this info helps,
Best regards,
Tony and Sue www.flyfishinginfrance.com
If you need any documents translating please see our French property and life link, off the main page. You will find a direct e-mail link to the lady that we used in Limoges. Very quick too.

Hi Tina,
You may wish to visit this site http://www.frenchentree.com/france-limousin-fishing
There is lots of information regarding fishing in the Limousin as a whole including licences etc. There is also a forum which I am sure if you posted a question there, answers would be forthcoming.
We hope to specialise in flyfishing this year, so if you dad fancies a change?
Best wishes and "Tight Lines " to your Dad.

Hi Zeb,
To be honest, I am not sure about Chronopost, could be something like Parcelforce in UK?. Sorry we cannot be more help on that one.
Glad the other info was useful.
Cheers,

Hi,
We sell on the internet to the French and had a simlar problem. Unlike UK, parcels seem to go on size as well as weight. If you packages can fit into a jiffy bag, with a depth of less than that of the french letter box, it is possible to use Lettre Post, if not there are various methods and costs for larger parcels. If you drop in to your La Poste and ask for Tarifs Colis ( parcels) and Tarifs Courrier ( most other things), you'll find all international rates inside the brochures.
I have to say that sometimes services differ between La Poste's. Seems some staff know more than others about postal methods. Our french neighbours confirmed this.
Hope this helps,

Hi,
We found www.holidaylets.net and www.holidayhavens.co.uk to be superb value for money. Our first year and we filled 11 weeks between the two. Good intro offers from both at the time . 3 months free AND you have full editorial control and free updates to your advert. Worked for us...........
Bonne chance,
Tony and Sue www.flyfishinginfrance.com

Hi,
The only true free sites at the moment are as above. Thanks Arnold for your efforts for us all.
We did find that www.holidayhavens.co.uk and www.holidaylets.net offered 3 months free advertising on their sites. Easy interface to work with and almost full control over content and pictures.
Between the two we had 10 weeks booked before we paid up for a full 12 months advertising. Both offered good service, fast response and we consider good value for money.
Hope the info helps.We have no connection whatsoever with the companies mentioned other than being an advertiser with them, but if you contact them by all means mention the fact that we referred you. This helps everybody who has a website and helps us all find value for money.
Best regards,
Tony and Sue www.flyfishinginfrance.com

Hi Steve,
We found an english speaking accountant through www.pagesjaune.fr (Yellow pages) in Haute-Vienne If you search for "Comptable" in the area that you will be in, and try some of the larger firms that have websites.
Hope this helps,Bonne chance.

Hi,
I don't know the site you mention, but if you are looking in depts 24,16,87 take a look at http://www.french-property-assets.com
We bought through this company last year and they could not have been more helpful.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,

Hi Ronni,
We are in Haute Vienne, so couldn't help, but just wanted to say what a generous posting. Glad you are full.

Hi,
We have advertised with a very well known site and got one booking....... so we looked around the web for alternatives.
I can recommend www.holidaylets.net and www.holidayhavens.co.uk
Both of these sites give you 3 months free trial and are a doddle to set up with text and pictures etc, giving you complete control.
We have now taken out a years advertising with one and will shortly take out the same with the other. Between them we now have 5 weeks booked since May and plenty of enquiries. This more than covers the costs of the advertising.
Hope this helps,
Tony www.flyfishinginfrance.com

Hi,
You may like to have a look at http://www.frenchentree.com/france-limousin-fishing
Although the site covers the Limousin, many anglers from other regions visit the site. It could be just the site to ask for club members. Although the entry requirements are a little tough
.
I've sent you a private message too as it could constitute advertising on LF site.
Yours in sport,

Hi,
May be useful, I've just seen an advert in French Property News which could help.
Take a look at www.canvasmobiles.com
They offer mobile homes from £2995 and can deliver throughout France.
We have no connection whatsoever, just quoting the web address.
Bonne chance.

Hi,
We have found that Pagesjaune(yellowpages) have half decent very local forecast.
http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pj.cgi
If you click Ville en Direct on the right hand column of the page and just follow the links for météo
It is usually possible to get a forecast for your town/village.
Cheers,
from a very sunny ( as predicted) Champagnac-La-Riviére.

Hi,
If you have a look at this link it is a translation of the French rules etc for Haute-Vienne. Hope this helps. The licence is more costly than UK, however unlike UK there are no exclusive expensive club waters. This gives you access to more waters.

Hi,
We can only speak from personal experience in Haute-Vienne, however we had our business registered in 2005 and last year wanted to add on a different facet. A quick visit to the Chamber of Commerce and the new activity was added onto the Greffe certificate. I should point out this cost us 70,00 euros. We kept the same SIRET/SIREN number.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Tony
