Re: Lost driving lincence

Not wishing to hijack the thread but a quick question.

I believe a UK licence has to be exchanged for a Spanish one if resident but does that similarly apply to all EU licences, I'm thinking...

Re: Internet in French holiday flat

There are a number of factors to consider of course but as a technology 4G based MiFi is theoretically capable of speeds of 150mb and 4G LTE 300mb, in the real world that means 20mb or 40mb neither...

Re: Linking CA and Paypal

I just added my CA card to my existing (and long standing pre France) UK Paypal A/C.

Re: Car insurance NCB transfer?
