Frogslegs Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Anyone had such luck in meeting Madame down at the tax office in Melle? I now know what it is like to stand in front of Anne Robinson?? She neither greeted us with bonjour or suggested we sit down, grimaced each time my French was incorrect, sighed every time she went to the filing cabinet!Obvious she detests any British person trying to live and work here!Be prepared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Animal Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 A lot of the "administration" people are like that. She may well have been exactly the same if you were French.Christine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deby Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Yep,I reckon I know exactly who you mean, raised her eyebrows all the time towards me until I remarked that I have worked and paid my taxes on time and if she had a problem with me she should tell me there and then. She soon changed and almost broke into a smile.Bless her!Deby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
