  1. My opinion is that Michelle looks like a lot more fun than Carla who I have the impression is rather false but not knowing either of them I may be quite wrong.
  2. And my mimosa is nearly in bloom.... quelle joie!

  4. Thanks everyone for your helpful replies.  I won't be paid as much as £5,000 but I'm beginning to think that a euro cheque paid into my French bank account will ultimately be the answer.  It's a few months away so I have time to think about it.  Thanks again for your help.
  5. I have lived in France for over twenty years.  I don't own a home, have securities (or even a bank account) and don't pay tax in the UK. I am taxable in France although my revenue is not enough for me to be 'imposable'.  This summer I will be taking care of a friends aged mother while my friend goes to Australia for a few months.  I will be paid and declared in the UK by my friend.  My question is.... can I just take the cheque and deposit it in France and declare it in my tax return for 2010 or do I have to declare it as earned income in the UK, pay tax, NI etc.  Thanks for any help.
  6. This is all very odd.  My radio picks up 'bleeps' but the mobile does not always ring.  Someone suggested that it might be a call from a mobile without much 'reseau'.  Or else it's those little green men[:-))]
  7. I'm up Krusty and have been since 8.00am!  A very happy New Year with good health to you and everyone on the Forum[kiss] Jen
  8. Does it ever work Ernie?  The puppies are tooooo cute.
  9. As we move into the weekend, and as the  Holiday Season grows near,  I would like to pass along this gentle reminder...   6 beers    2 glasses of wine         2 bottles of wine (shared)         too many margaritas              3 Kamikazes       7 Captain Morgans (coconut flavored, of course) & coke      1 large purple haze        3 martinis         1 bottle of tequila       
  10. On television the other day there was a blind tasting of four foie gras - two expensive and two el cheapo.  The expert classified the two inexpensive ones (Ed and Marque Repere Leclerc) as being 18/20 and the other two (Labeyrie was one of them) as 12/20.  I always make my own mi-cuit, that way I know what I'm getting. 
  11. Solar fairy lights will be the answer next year when my daughter gets married.  I'd better rush out to Gifi while stocks last in case they only stock them at Christmas. Great idea!

  14. Those are just until you get her the real one for christmas, right?[Www]
  15. [quote user="Puzzled"][quote user="Bugbear"]Porridge................................with a largish blob of Treacle [/quote] I'm going to start something here [Www] do you mean that thick black stuff treacle or do you mean golden syrup ' treacle' ? The latter was always treacle in our house -but I was corrected by my wonderful never wrong sister in law, that I was wrong! [/quote] Perhaps the confusion comes from Treacle Tart which is made with syrup not treacle. And how about crumpets, well cooked on the bottom and with lots of butter variety 'sel de guérande'?
  16. Gosh, Chessfou, you must be very important [Www] to have been able to get a reservation at El Bulli. How long did you have to wait?  I hear it's years and that they select their guests!
  17. [quote user="sweet 17"]They're great rolled when, after frequent washing, they get a bit out of shape and the corners are every which way.[/quote] Mine too, and as for the woven bit at each end which shrinks so you get a 'frill'......
  18. My dogs - big briard and little tibetan spaniel - have never scratched my glass doors. But don't get me started on 'slobber' marks! [+o(]
  19. Hi Sweet 17... Yes I really must post more regularly and not just browse - I'm just being lazy! Thanks for your thoughts.
  20. [quote user="Meg and Mog"]I naffed it up a bit too. But there's a huge difference between failure and quitting. People make mistakes, people bugger up. Its called being human. It's the keeping on at it, no matter how far you get pushed, admitting when you went wrong, and never quitting that counts. [/quote] How right you are M&M and I hope you are all doing well. A couple of months after 'going public' on the forum about my late partner I met a new man and life looks pretty ok.  Don't lose courage everyone! Jen
  21. I was on the rocade around Bordeaux this morning and it was nearly empty.  However, I did notice that roadworks to widen the road at the Merignac exits are starting soon and they may well hold you up.  Good luck, anyway!
  22. And what have you done with the mother in law[:-))]!!!!!!!!
  23. If your flight is in the morning from  Bordeaux, remember to leave very early as the two bridges (especially the Pont d'Aquitaine) and the Rocade are likely to be sluggish, if not at a standstill, between 8 - 9.30am.  Unless of course you are travelling on a Sunday in which case you will sail into the airport without a problem.  Jen
