What is a mom & pops restaurant ?
-
Yes Robbo you may be right ........
Theire I have thats probally the problem... Since startng to learn I have had a Cornish french speaker teacher, a SW france teacher and a Paris teacher. Plus on the CD'S Micheal Thomas and Elizabeth Smith (have you heard her!!) Then I go deep south of France were Pain sounds like Penge. I have no chance really do I ??
Still my neighbours and builder are really beginning to understand me now . So I must be doing some thing right ....

I think your right andy his injextions would need to be done before he travels . Dependng which country they are buying the animal. The french dont check coming in but my passports are checked leaving the uk... They ask when your coming back and and check the retun dates against the passport , now its 21 one days any one staying longer would have the time I guess to get them done .

Did they do a nutella one ? I never saw that
Trust me peanutbutter is so much better ....yum
-
Yes I like May/ June time as I love to see all the poppies and wild flowers . Some years through it has still been cold , some years nice and hot

Just checked my bank ..who do now do direct payments in euros to my french bank they were offering 1.147 + £9.50 charge . rate at the mo 1.196
So will not be doing that .
I got 1.208 when the rate was 1.212 last week + 3e charge with Currency fair .
-
Do you mind me asking which bank you use? ..As I dont think mine gives me that option.... although I havnt done it that way for years so may go back and check to see if things have changed.
The rate you get is close to the real rate ?
-
yes it can be done boths sides but in my experience cheaper in the uk..... but then im in cornwall if their practise is posh end of london this could change.
-
Was their rate of the day alot less than the real rate of the day? I only once tried to send via my bank in that manner and couldnt believe how much I lost , I went back to the bank and asked how much the difference was between the days rate and the rate they gave me and no one in the bank could tell me

Then you need converting young lady .... VOTE for Peanut butter !!!! ;)
-

[quote user="HEZ"]I transfer mine bank to bank online with no problem at all. I chose to send euros from the beginning so I know how much I am getting. The rate is good. I pay a small fee and it takes me 10 to 20 seconds to complete the transaction and it arrives the next day. I dont think you could get much simpler. I cant be doing with third parties where you have to transfer your money first before it gets sent. Noone does anything for nothing even if they infer they do. They are not Charities or doing you a huge favour. They are doing it to make money.
[/quote]Hez how do you get the euros in the first place ?
-
