I think you will need to get permission from Paysage de France.[;-)] You will need further clearance if you are intending to offer any pop music for your guests.

SNCF Forfait Subsciption Rail Card
BJSLIV replied to Sharkster's topic in The Complete France Post Bag
As it says on their website the card can offer savings of up to 50%. So as the daily return fare in this case is about 29 euros, in a month you could spend up to 580 euros. The monthly fee is 390 so in the first year the theoretical saving is 200 but increases over the next couple of years. So in the third year you could be saving nearly 50% if you ignore holidays, illness etc. -

Birmingham - Bordeaux BMI Baby
BJSLIV replied to shropshirelass's topic in Travelling to/from France
I think its an annual game that they play. which of the French flights shall we pull this year. Its usually Manchester/ Bordeaux but they must have decided to play about with Brum this year. Things usually finalise by July/August. -
Being an occasional BT Internet user this happens to us with Speedferry confirmations. they end up in the BT Trash/Spam can (Best place for them some would say!). Do you check they Spam bin to see if they have ended up there?

Same here. got as far as the page where you fill in name address etc. Are you sure that you haven't changed your security settings, cookies etc?

That's the weakness in the law, they can't control retailers operating outside France, so as I said earlier , I fully expect Amazon.fr will transfer their book selling to Amazon.Belgium or Luxembourg. Internet retailers are able to operate from where they like ducking and diving to maximize their own commercial interests. You can see that in the way that environmentally friendly Tesco ship all their UK mail-ordered DVDs, enveloped and addressed ready for posting, all the way from London to Switzerland and then to post them back to the UK just to avoid paying the VAT.

Really Really long term parking at Bordeaux Airport
BJSLIV replied to Babbles's topic in Travelling to/from France
I'm afraid that you don't qualify for those rates. They are only available for charter flights originating from Bordeaux (That's how you get the coupon, from your package tour operator). You will have to pay the full P2 rate higher up the page ie 35 euros plus 7 Euros per additional day. -
You could do Glasgow-Southampton- Limoges with Flybe for about £350 . Pretty good connecctions on the way out, not so good for the return. 07:00 Depart Glasgow (GLA) Arrive Limoges (LIG) 12:30 Wed 4-Jul Duration: 4hr 30min Flybe 883 / 1225 Connect in Southampton (SOU) 12:55 Depart Limoges (LIG) Arrive Glasgow (GLA) 21:40 Wed 1-Aug Duration: 9hr 45min I think the trick is to return via Manchester instead of Southampton for a better connection. 07:00 Depart Glasgow (GLA) Arrive Limoges (LIG) 12:30 Wed 25-Jul Duration: 4hr 30min Flybe 883 / 1225 Connect in Southampton (SOU) 15:30 Depart Limoges (LIG) Arrive Glasgow (GLA) 19:35 Thu 2-Aug Duration: 5hr 5min Flybe 104 / 7280 Connect in Manchester (MAN)

I suppose it would be a useful target for the Breton Nationalists , anti Brit groups etc to attack.

But thanks to the French law it is far easier to find decent bookshops, with a wide range of books, in relatively small towns. However the Booksellers are probably fighting a losing battle on the postage issue. The likes of Amazon will quite happily decamp to the UK or elsewhere and supply their French customers that way, outside the reach of the French courts. The high cost of French books is largely due to the high cost of printing books in what is, a relatively minor language in terms of volume sold. This means shorter print runs and higher unit costs.

I assume that because you haven't been in business for 5 years you don't qualify as a Professional Landlord. Presumably some of the gain comes from the goodwill built up in the business, which would disappear if you sold it as a plain house. Surely its better to have the liability to pay 27% tax on a gain of £400,000? rather than have no gain at all, and as a result miss out on the £300,000 that you will be keeping.......

It would be easier to give some advice if you gave some indication as to which tax is causing the problem.

Finding items that dirty is relatively easy. Its finding a cleaner that effective is where I have a problem!

The bill will show the charge for each section. It is worth checking that all the items match the Michelin figures. What can happen is that you are not clocked off as you leave the motorway, so they then charge you the maximum for the direction you were heading. This happened to us once when the barrier failed to open and we had to be manually let out. A quick email and the amount was refunded the following month.

They "only" charge £70 for a name change Passenger names can be changed up to 4 hours prior to scheduled flight departure through a Ryanair reservation centre only (subject to opening hours) and upon payment of a per person name change fee of £70 and €100. Any name change made to a flight reservation must be for that individual passenger’s complete flight itinerary I hope it wasn't on more than one ticket..........
