Re: WTF in America

We have been involved with renovations here in France and I don't think we would ever have any building works done in the US. Outside of course if we would want to change the kitchen or bathrooms or...

Re: WTF in America

I lived in the UK for many years but we sold up and moved to our second home here in France two years ago. We have had work...
