Re: Nice Apartment or more rural house

Re: Charente? Dordogne? or Gironde?

You're right, Petitefrancaise, the Gers looks quite beautiful and I'm fond of its rolling hills. I watched "des Racines et des Ailes" two days ago and it gave me a good general idea of what it looks...

I've had a look at Azimo and CurrencyFair. For an amount of 350 EUR, the first one offers 388.46 GBP and the second one offers 244.49 GBP, which seems more accurate. I reckon there's something...

Re: Moto and their riders

Not only "tapage nocturne", even day "tapage" is forbidden.

Re: To move... or not to move?
