THIS one seems to work ok. I watched a documentary about the Beatles inception in the 50's and early 60's on BBC 4 last night with no issues.It is a global site, so if you want UK channels, select UK in the drop down 'country' menu and select 'All' or 'Genre' from the drop down 'category' menu

THIS ?

Is THIS any use?

Sorry, I don't quite follow the connection between the exchange to a French driving licence and to what it is you are referring to in the UK.

[quote user="Manon"] However, a friend who applied last Spring received his interim permit so long ago that it has now expired so has no license and no valid letter ![/quote]You couldn't make this stuff up.

[quote user="Patf"]I think bread baking is definitely a science. Like an unpredictable experiment.[/quote]It is in this household. Fortunately Panasonic has it down to a fine art form and includes an excellent and easy to use instructions manual with their state of the art breadmakers. Mind you, after twenty years of daily use, we've pretty well got the hang of it now.

[quote user="lindal1000"]Of course there are a number of reasons why any business goes under, but as a business, the airline has to give a legitimate and truthful reason to its shareholders and one of the reasons was the uncertainty over brexit. I don't see how anyone could imagine it didn't have an effect.. last straw and all that. If it looks like a turd and smells like a turd it probably is a turd.[/quote]Yes. Airline Investments Ltd (AIL), the present owners of FlyBMI, had obviously chosen a 'shite' business model and had run out of investor cash-cows to stump up more funds.From 2009 until 2012, Lufthansa, the German national carrier was the sole shareholder of British Midland Airways and they eventually threw in the towel unable to return BMI back into profit. It was sold on to AIL and the rest is history.Definitely not the best time to be operating a low-cost airline. Even Ryanair suffered a 10% devaluation following its earlier profit warning.

Ah, that 'old chestnut' Let's blame are inability to operate a business in an efficient and profitable manner, in a cut-throat industry, on Brexit."If planes were half-empty – why didn't Flybmi simply halve the number of flights to fill them all up?
The airline was firmly aimed at business travellers, who demand a
choice of departures. Were the twice-daily Bristol-Munich route to become only a single daily service, the average load might have fallen even further."Why are times so tough?
"This winter is proving extremely cruel to small airlines, which
have high fixed costs and, currently, very low revenues. It has precipitated the collapse of Primera Air, Cobalt of Cyprus and Germania before Flybmi."The bottom line? Wrong people running the company.

Returns of capital enable companies to make a return to investors who would have expected a dividend payment but where the investment has not generated the return to enable a dividend to be paid.The 'roc' replaces a dividend shortfall but does, however, de-value your investment by decreasing your original cost basis. If and when an 'roc' exceeds the original cost basis it then becomes a capital gain which you already know, from your post above, is declarable and taxable.The impots should be aware of all this. Good luck.
-
'Return of capital' is a payment from a security to an investor from funds that were not derived from net income. This is usually done because the underlying investments have not generated the annual income necessary to make the expected dividend payments to investors in a year.Returns of capital are 'not considered income' and are therefore deemed tax-exempt.

I've eaten galette des roi twice when it has been in the 30% reduction cool cabinet in Lidl. A slice, one minute in the microwave, and a dollop of vanilla ice-cream made it an enjoyable after dinner desert for me.As for brioche, we make our own du pain brioché in this household and I eat it toasted with either jam or marmalade every morning for breakfast.No issues with either for me.

Just an idea as I no longer have a mobile phone so I have never had to confront this issue.Login on your laptop. Click on your username, ericd, alongside 'Edit your details' This will take you to 'Configure Your User Profile' where you can check if the information the site holds on you is the same as you are trying to use to access via your phone.If the information is correct and you are still unable access via the phone you could try enroling as a new member on the phone device with a new password and a new username as 'ericd2' and if successful change your username back to ericd.

[quote user="nomoss"]Do you really believe they are all the sole ownership of Sky?[/quote]Sky has numerous strings to its bow, one of those being Sky tv. Within the tv sphere they offer several pay to view bundles and packages which will include a large selection of Free To Air channels (the ones you receive). Sky owns the right to transmit these channels through its service to be received by Sky set-top box demodulators which use the Sky EPG.

[quote user="nomoss"]I watch free TV programmes, I assume from Freesat, via my Sky box (I know it's a Sky box 'cos it says "skydigibox" on the front.[/quote]As well as our Humax box (FreeSat) we have a Panasonic Digibox (Sky) in the kitchen. I believe the 'free' programmes you receive via your Digibox are the sole ownership of Sky ( Free to Air) the same as those received through our Panasonic box.FreeSat however is a totally different company (a joint venture between BBC and ITV) to Sky but transmits a similar free service via Astra2 - 28.2° satallite.FreeView is really of no consequence to a French resident unless they reside in close proximity to the 'manche' coast.[quote user="nomoss"]These are the only channels I get, now that I have cancelled our Sly TV subscription.[/quote]I've heard them called worse.

[quote user="cajal"][quote user="Gardian"]Definitely worth a watch are the ‘Porridge’ repeats on the Drama channel (Freeview ch 143, nightly at 19.00 UK time). [/quote]Hi Gardian,Just being inquisitive here.How do you manage to have Freeview in the Gard? I always thought it could only be received, via an aerial + set top box or with a tv with it installed, in the UK and with a bit of a push at coastal points of northern France and the Netherlands.[/quote]As I asked the question I will give my interpretation of what I thought was my misunderstanding of receiving UK tv in France.I would suggest that not only does Gardian not watch 'Porridge' on Freeview or even Freesat but in fact watches it via a Sky box where you will find the Drama channel on 143.I therefore believe my understanding of satallite tv remains intact.
