Tony Jones Posted June 24, 2017 Author Share Posted June 24, 2017 Sorry so long replying - been a bit hectic with one thing or another. Thanks everyone for the good wishes. We're well settled in now, but I suspect some of the locals still see us as the Crazy English Couple! We've got the van now, but need to get Gaslow or equivalent installed, which we're seeing about next week. I've gone completely native, after years of Ford fanaticism - our runabout is a battered old Renault Scenic, and our motorhome is (wait for it) a CITROËN! Not an X250 or one of the current "Decepticons" though, it's a 2005 job, but with minimal mileage. I see the link disappeared - probably because the advert was taken down once we'd agreed the deal. I'll try to add a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will86 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 When in France buy French, not so crazy.. Are we going to see a picture of your new dwelling ... to go with your new transport ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Jones Posted June 24, 2017 Author Share Posted June 24, 2017 I'll have a look what we've got. First floor flats tend not to look exciting though! Nope, the pics I've got are way over the size limit, and for some reason this computer doesn't seem to have that Microsoft thing that lets you compress them.

PJay Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Where's the parking for VISITING motor homes Tony?? Hope you both settling in well, nice area around you. PJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will86 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Looks good Tony, are you able to still follow in your original interests now you are more firmly settled, or has the motorised life now taken over completely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Jones Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 Pauline, there's a coach park just across the road which motorhomerd use freely (in both senses), abd an official Aire a five minute walk away. Will, yes, we've joined a local French Baptist Church, and I'll preach there once a month when we're in town - but they undersrand we often won't be! Absolutely no admin or management responsibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
