[quote user="Frenchie"]
I have the same worry about the tiles on my roof, I know a few ones are a bit dodgy......
My question is what to do if it happens ( tiles being taken off by the wind), should I call the " pompiers"?
Not looking forward to tonight.[:'(]

I guess it depends how many tiles fly off and whether you feel threatened. Just to be on the safe side I'm collecting a few buckets and a bache along with some candles, matches, torch and most important, my charged up cell phone. In the 1999 tempete I had no damage at all and felt quite smug but not for long. Two weeks later the house burned to the ground[:-))]
Courage everyone!

I thought tailgating was done at Varsity matches with a Fortnums hamper[Www]

Sweet, ne t'inquiètes pas pour le chemin de Compostelle. T'es en bonne forme en géneral et si ça prends deux mois plutôt que six semaines.... alors? Je pense aussi que l'hiver nous déprime un peu. Bientôt le printemps va frapper à nos portes et le moral sera de retour. A part les quelques jours à la montagne, je n'ai rien fait de physique depuis noel donc je suis aussi un peu molle et je crois que l'encouragement de nos amis sur le forum va nous faire beaucoup de bien.
Ame, je voudrais bien regarder le re-diffusion Lundi soir du film sur la route de Compostelle mais je ne capte que trois chaînes et l'Orange ne fait pas partie. C'est peut être disponible en DVD.

[quote user="Théière"]I would like it to do once, what it once did all night [:D][/quote]
Aren't there pills for that........[Www]

Any news from the vet this am Sweets? I know how much your dog means to you both.

Sweets, ust to add my ten cents worth, but not to make you feel awful (promise!!) my daughter sent a box of clobber for my little holiday next week via TNT. She sent it on Tuesday and it arrived today. The delivery man had GPS in his van plus my phone number in case he couldn't find me and as you know, I live in the middle of nowhere. Sooo, perhaps you should ask M&S to send your package via TNT? If nothing else they seem to be efficient.
-
Sweets, you made me laugh out loud - really!!!!!
-
Courage, Coops... I'm so glad everything is going reasonably well and that the 'morale est bonne'. Fingers crossed for the next liver tests and keep warm up in the Sarthe!
-
Sweets, they might have been 'real men' (not that I would have wanted to take them home with me LOL) but they didn't offer to pump for us!
-
Sweets... Just sent you a PM
-
Happy New Year to you all. I hope that 2010 brings happiness and health to you all and your loved ones and peace on this lovely planet of ours.

Perhaps you should become Richard the First[Www]

Yes, Frenchie, but you also get to bring in the logs, get in the pommes de pin, buy the firelighters, buy the liquide concentré for starting fires, clean the glass of the poêle. Sure, no probs, Frenchie! N'est ce pas, Jen?

Absolument..! And when the fire is laid, all you have to do is rub two boy scouts together to get a flame (well, that's what Brown Owl told me, anyway)
-
Actually, Sweets, you'll be doing all the cooking..........[Www] All I'm doing is grilling the crumpets!

Wow! Aren't you the lucky one! The Easyjet site has no telephone number - well, none that lil' ol' myopic me could find - and the 'contact us' page sent me round in circles so perhaps Ryanair should be aplauded. I flew Easyjet last weekend and at least I understood what the pilot and stewards/stewardesses were saying.......... and they had a sense of humour, rather essential given the horrendous travelling conditions.
-
I've just made a boo boo with easyjet - used my current (maiden) name instead of my married name. A sixty euro mistake I won't be repeating.

[quote user="sweet 17"]
But, Jen, you did say "hand luggage" and, to me, that suggests that you're going to be carrying them in your hands?
Nah, that doesn't make any sense to me, sorreeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
[/quote]
Never heard of implants, Sweets... LOL
-
Thanks Cendrillon and Sweets for your suggestions but I guess the only breasts I'll be taking to England will be my own[:-))]
-
Can anyone tell me if I can take fresh magrets in my hand luggage - Easyjet from Bordeaux to Luton? I think I would slit my wrists if I was relieved of them by the Douane. And my SIL might kill me if I arrive without them.[:-))]

I have a Briard and a Tibetan spaniel and they go everywhere together - BUT NOT IN MY BACKPACK! I can't even take them with me when I walk as they are so indiscipliné they present a huge hazard on the roads. As for their weight, well, the Briard (complete with coat and looking like a rasta) weighs the same as a small horse. However, when she is shaved she looks like a whippet and probably weighs as much. One of these days I'll post a piccy of the two of them.
Just as an 'aside', are we going to do a St. Jacques 'blog'?

Oik, you, Woolybanana, don't you know the correct placement of apostrophes? Or should I say, vous me moquez or some such? Just watch it, OK (and that's deffo a threat and NOT a promise!)
Jen, programme the phone? Why do you imagine for one minute that I could do something as technically complicated as that?[:$]
I bet you're just glad I didn't go on that 29 km walk and you can now steal a march (marcher) on me, huh, huh???[+o(]
[/quote]
I would certainly have been in admiration if you had done the 29k walk! I'm sure we're both capable of it but I hope to reach 30k twice a week by next spring. 2x10k/day is no problem but we have to avoid burnout[Www] The biggest problem is finding interesting (dog free) loops without getting run over by an articulated truck. My next stage is to stuff my back pack withy 5k of books to get used to the weight.
Don't worry about the memory thing - if your brain is anything like mine, it hibernates during the winter - I'm serious!

Thanks Cat and Clair - hope it works!

Can a boffin explain why I am no longer able to get icons (the ones for inclusion in text) or links? I have just recently downloaded Windows 8. The message square has also shrunk to the size of a couple of postage stamps.
