  1. I haven't had the letter yet but I suspect that all Orange subs will be going up.

    I note that even though I have their cheapest deal half of it has been taxed at 5.5%. I think this may be an accounting ruse, a bit like when MFI used to charge part of their prices as furniture insurance. I think Orange have been saying that everyone has access to their TV on the PC service, hence 50% at 5.5%.

    My last bill was.................

  2. LD did say that the Arrow would return and run in tandem with the Leader. As Will says, there has been much speculation as to whether the Leader would ever put in an appearance on Portsmouth-Le Havre, but they have included it in their booking engine wef the end of April.

    However with that update in place its perhaps surprising that they haven't at the same time included the Arrow's crossings.

    The speculation is that they are deciding whether to use the displaced Alabtre or the Arrow to support the Leader. At least Albatre could provide a year round service unlike the Arrow.

    I can't see how it can possibly make financial sense to have a Fastcast which is used twice a day for a maximum of 6 months of the year.

    I guess it will all depend on whether they can find someone willing to take on the Arrow and thereby let them off the financial hook.
  3. Our problem is that we are currently living in what, up until now, has been our holiday home and we are just anxious that there should not be any dispute / confusion about which is classed as our main home. 

    Your maison principale is the one in which you live, receive official communications, and at which you pay your French taxes etc etc.

    If the other house is unfurnished and totally unoccupied at the start of a year, then you don't pay any taxe d'habitation for that property for that year.

    On the other hand however basic the facilities are , lacking heating, bathrooms etc etc, if it's furnished , however humbly, it will be liable to TdH.

  4. Cedeo, with whom most plumbers, in our area at least,  seem to have an account......

     ...have lots of 80*120 trays . Is it your specific requirement for the position of the outlet that is causing the problem?

    Mind you Cedeo are perhaps a little pricey 400-600 Euros.

    So perhaps Leroy Merlin at 100- 200 Euros might be more acceptable.
