Hi Silversurfer. You having a bad day, your sounding like a grumpy old man
We don't live in France but have spent a lot of time over there,
I think the French supermarkets are far cleaner and much better laid out than English ones.
Cheers Sid
My view too and I haven't spent a lot of time over there only 3 week average every year since 1980.

The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.

Hi I just remembered another tip for ecanomical shopping, I shop at
E' Leclerc and find their ECO PLUS products good quality and cheap, I also shop at Aldi, but prefer not to take my husband with me as they sell lots of toys for the boys on promotion there, I must admit that the computer and the laptop he bought there are very good and they give 3 years guarantee which is great! and if you come across a BRICO DEPOT thats an amazing place
I heard an English man say that he took shower trays etc. back to G.B as they were so much cheaper, but paint is dear here, best of all we are on a low income and I am a pensioner so we pay no tax d'habition, (rates) I feel sorry for the pensioners who live in England, we find life good here.

Goodness me Silvasurfer, what is this World coming to? Serving fish without wearing gloves? Disgraceful!
Come on, what's such a problem? Can't you remember when people just washed their hands? Gloves can be just as unhygenic if they have been worn to do other jobs as can unwashed hands....no difference.

Thanks for all the tips guys and gals
Plenty to go on there. On our whistle stop trip in Nov we thought that the supermarkets were better than ours. Mind you our local is asda. where the aisles are always full of product and people filling the shelves and we have to kepe shifting our the way for the madman on the floor sweeper.
We particularly liked the look of the fruit and veg which seemed so much more colourful than here in UK.
Just going wherever the bonnet is pointing at the moment.
