Idun, indigestion free bananas: put one along with 2 scoops of ice cream and a few strawberries in a blender for 10 seconds. Yec’hed mat! [B]

Thank you for the suggestions for good quality wet foods.
Today I received a delivery of Arden Grange, yes it’s expensive but my dog means a lot to me, fortunately he liked it. [:)]

[quote user="Val_2"] A friend of mine was married to a french vet who always maintained one big petfood maker (begins with F) actually added adictive additives to entice animals to eat their products and get them hooked on it.[/quote]
I find that quite alarming, if this vet suspects something I wish he would report it.
Val_2, can you narrow the list a bit? I know only 3, Friskies, Fido and Florics is it one of these?
I find it quite sad that some owners feed their pets on the same old rubbish day in day out without even a change of brand or taste.

[quote user="Normandy Dude"]We are considering buying several rooms of furniture in the US and shipping it all to France. I have tried to get a straight answer from French authorities (consulate, embassy, douane, etc.), from shipping companies and all their respective websites to no avail. Before we buy the furniture, we have to know, how much customs duty is it going to add to the price? Are we talking 20%? 50%? 100%? 200%? Clearly, our decision may change depending on how much more it will cost. THANK YOU![/quote]

I used to have small items shipped from the US to UK, even with the shipping and duty costs it was well worth it, a mate even shipped a 25ft boat +trailer+SUV over, it was cheap even with the taxes.

I argued like hell about this but like you, I could never get any sense out of the douane.
Good luck.

Combien de bises? This used to be a nightmare for me when I first arrived in
Two I can tolerate but one family were all into the 4 category and there were 6 women! So on a visit 24 bises going in and 24 going out, now don’t get me wrong, if they were Brooklyn Decker look-alikes I wouldn’t mind but……..[;-)]

I understood the ‘choose to be idle’ bit to mean living off the state and relying on others for support.
I took mandatory retirement at an earlier age than most and haven’t worked since. I just do the usual household jobs etc without working for a living; I survive totally on my pension and not handouts and adjust my lifestyle accordingly to the actual cost of living. In my opinion this is not idleness.

They also have plenty of time to get accustomed to this ‘noise’ every 6 months during their mandatory simulator training program. Why did they not complain then? A pathetic excuse I think.

[quote user="NormanH"]Opps sorry [:(]

Angela, I normally use the yellow pages book but the online version is much more informative.
I found what I wanted. Many thanks.

I may be early retired, but I can assure you that I am not idle!!!!!!

He did not say that you were, he wrote:
'when in fact it is only early retired people who choose to be idle who are in that situation.'

Yes Bob T and I have found the delivery drivers to be a pretty miserable unhelpful bunch compared to say UPS

Thank you PPP

[quote user="idun"]
However, the pilots from Air France were criticising the alarm system, being too noisy and hard to tell where there is a malfunction, and from the sound of it, it cannot have helped.

Poor excuse- audible alarms can normally be cancelled.

[quote user="Loiseau"]Perhaps your friendly neighbourhood armurerie (gun shop) would tell you? Angela[/quote]
Thank you Angela but there is not one I know of.

AF-I am not surprised

I would wave one finger at Pix etc; cancel the payment and Google German and Belgian sites, they are far more efficient, helpful and in most cases cheaper, there is also Amazon.co.uk.

This 34c/min is a right pain in the a@&e
I almost give up on some of the Fr sites, I would call their counterparts in the UK 0844 369 0372 and see if they will/can help.

[quote user="NormanH"]CA are doing this all the time now. [:@]
In some cases they will send the code to an email address, in other cases to a mobile, which I did not have until my recent spell away from home.
[/quote]My Fr C/C people insist on sending a code by mobile. I do not have one either. You will see on the merchant’s website when they ask for this code, there is provision for poor or no mobile network available cases. Click on this and normally they will request your birth date instead.

I want to sell my shotgun, does anyone know the French law on this e.g. would a buyer have to present an ID or license?
I have asked my local gendarmerie but they were rather vague, so I’m none the wiser.

I understand that card fraud depts do not like orders sent to other that the card holders address.
Try telephoning them with your details.
