the wee p

I know exactly how you felt, were stuck in a traffic jam on the bypass and when we got to the emergency service vehicles we could see a golden retriever sitting on the left lane, it was alive, back end was away, obvious it had been clipped, i keep thinking about it, sat there and the gendarme just standing waving on the traffic, horrible things accidents!

Thanks, cant believe the price but then im sure i did pay £90 in the UK for myother sons passport.    

Hi Can any one tell me the procedure and where i would apply for my babies passport once born, i know its Paris but cant seem to find anything else on the forums.   thanks

Hi Just to mention that we have finally signed up for our mutuelle today with groupama after taking months to get our carte vitale number and i am covered for all Maternity costs from today.   tricia

Hi Our son will be 4 next month and was up to date with all his jabs before we moved here a year ago, can you tell me what ones he should get and what there called over here, Is it just the tb one that is different from what they get in the UK? Dh and i have been thinking maybe he should get the tb one if most of the french kids get it anyway i know its not mandatory, but my son seems to catch anything thats going so better safe than sorry. Also is it up to the parents to initiate the jabs, in the UK we would normally get a letter from our GP saying its time for the jabs??? thanks

thanks, (funny round about way of pointing that out to me :)

Great thanks,. will go  tomorrow, parents in law thought they had to complete a section with there's just wanted to be sure first...

Hi My husband recieved his E106 the other day, do we just go to CPAM with it or do we need to complete it first, it has the basics already completed, name, address, status etc etc, thanks  

Thanks was just a general querie

Hi My friends baby has bad colic, can you suggest anything she can buy over the counter to help please? thanks

Hello, I have been looking at health insurance online, mutuelle, assurance complémentaire, none of the companies cover maternity from the start of the policy, you have to have had the policy for a previous ten months, is there any companies that cover from the start of the policy? thanks.

Ah i see,

Thanks folks, but we have lost the fight!! Other half went into garage and its soaked!! pipes burst boxes sodden im p****d!, phoning plumber in the morning

Hello I was wondering if any one knows why there are no cats eyes in the road in France like in the UK?    

Ok got that, but................ [:-))] Just went to run a bath and i can tell there freezing up again the waters coming out much slower than usual, so would it be worth me leaving the kitchen or bathroom tap on at a trickle over night, would this stop them freezing up again if the waters flowing, until i get to a bricodepot in the morning?    

What is a Bricodepot?  I can only think of my nearest Leroy Merlin

Thanks folks, thats my job for tomorrow, if they dont freeze again tonight!!

No chance of me heating the garage its bigger than any room in the house and is freezing!! Will look into either us or a plumber lagging? the pipes, no doubt this will happen again maybe this week if it stays so cold! Any tips on how to lag the pipes and where to get the materials?  (my other half doesnt do DIY so its up to me )

The problems been fixed!! Phoned a plumber who is to busy but told me to switch water off at mains open taps in house and swtich water on, nothing happened for a good 5-10mins then i took heater and hairdryer to  the garage and attempted to heat the pipes and it all seems to have worked!! :) So im away to have a cup of much needed coffee!!

Should i phone a plumber or Saur?

Hahahahhahhaa very funny!!

Hi We currently rent out house and have had no hot or cold water today, im assuming the pipes are frozen, the pipes are in the garage which isnt insulated, the hot water pipe from the boiler is slightly warm and is covered in the black foam insulation stuff but still no water, all other cooper pipes are not covered, as you can tell im not very clued up on house plumbing.  Should i go to Leroy Merlin and buy some of the black insulation stuff for the pipes? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks ame
