Tresco Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Hi Mark.You could also put a post in the House Renovations part of the forum. Ask about the specific products/suppliers you're interested in. Not too many at once though, otherwise peoples heads start exploding[;-)] [:)]http://www.completefrance.com/cs/forums/318/ShowForum.aspxWelcome to the forum.

Tresco Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Is there a Leroy Merlin near you?www.leroymerlin.frAnother tip. Edit your profile (go to your name at the top of the page and click) and put your Department name and nearest biggish town into the box that says 'Location'. It'll save you having to say where you are in every post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teejay Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Would recommend that you also join Burgundy Friends : www.burgundyfriends.co.uk : very similar site to this one, although much smaller, but then all members are in your region.

Cat Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 One other thing Mark, you might want to take the (71) bit out of your username now. The forum software doesn't like brackets, and people will not be able to quote sections of your mails if your username contains then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cacknanty Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Hi,Opposite the Leclerc in Autun is a Mr Bricolage. Can't think of any others of the top of my head. There is a big zone commercial Chateau Chinon road but I can't remember what stores are there.A drive to Chalons would take you to Bricoman, much cheaper than most of the other DIY sheds. Takes a long time to wander around.We are (occasionally) near to Nolay there are one or two builder merchants about but are expensive unless you can haggle or open an account.CheersNigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosie Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 HiThere is a Bricomarche which opened about six months ago on the outskirts of Autun at Bellevue. There is also a Maxibrico in Arnay le Duc which although small is quite well stocked.Good luck with your DIY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Maid Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 There are a lot of Brits around Autun. We are actually in Cote d'Or but Autun isn't that far. We also get to Yonne and Nievre too.Our daughter has a lovely French boyfriend who speaks excellent English and he is an electrician! She has such good taste! PM or e-mail us if you want an English speaking electrician. Definately who you know not what you know.Coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
