  1. 100e was 1172cc. as was the Ford Ten.1197cc was the OHV.
  2. You most certainly keep it-to live on!!!
  3. It's the same in the UK-opening a second account in a bank where I had had an account for years meant that they needed all the checks again and this was before money-laundering,
  4. The cameras that flash twice are Gatso;Truvelo and two other makes of camera can be used and they only flash once and do not need markings on the road.
  5. I've only been asked for it for the past two years;my UK tax identity number appears acceptable.

    If you're going to sell your products,don't forget your hygeine certificate,higher levels of kitchen equipment and the many other legal requirements.
  8. Insurance companies are not stupid;they would ask to see your tickets/credit card receipts etc;-remember that it would be you who wanted them to pay out.
  9. The old road entering Millau from the South is also spectacular and well worth a drive;the new bridge has reduced the traffic on this route.It winds down a cliff face.
  10. Most car parks in France,particularly those near the coast,have a two metre barrier.
  11. It's better to look at than to use.
  12. Fuel is not expensive in the UK but the taxes on it that you pay to the government are.
  13. An "OLD" barn??-looks remarkably modern.
  14. Telephone cables were earthed in the UK when there were shared lines;our house still has an earth wire but I doubt it is connected to anything-just left over from when we moved into the house.
  15. Like George Brown in the USSR-TIRED & EMOTIONAL!!!
  16. In the UK sold in Wilko and Poundstretcher.
  17. Velosolex(or copies) are still available new.I had a Raleigh moped-not called a Wisp-but it was a re-badged Mobylette.
  18. A quick diversion off the A75(5min.)is worthwhile to see the Viaduct du Garabit.-nr. St. Flour.
  19. Many of the local railway services are,in fact,buses(on contract to SNCF).
  20. I'm still waiting to see what happens around the Sete/Agde area. 2020 seems to be the earliest mentioned.
  21. With higher water pressures and mains-fed hot water,you can use smaller pipe dia. than you would in the UK.
  22. I was told "multiply your outgoings by three and divide your incomings by three".
  23. There may be some open for a few hours in the morning.
  24. Having landed at Montpellier(and left the wife to collect the bags)I was glad I used Holiday Autos and was not collecting my car from Hertz.By the time we went out to the car park there was a queue of 30+ at their desk-allowing two minutes for each customer,that's over an hour!
