I'm in need of a bit of assistance please.

The engine management warning light has illuminated in my car. It's probably indicating a trivial fault, but the only way to be sure is to plug a reader into the diagnostic port. Does anyone have one that they'd let me use? I could drive to wherever you are, plug it in, read the code and go. You'll hardly know I was there...

I'd really appreciate any assistance!

Thanks,
Brian

Good day all,

I'm a bit baffled. Our electricity has always been supplied by Soregies. I can access my account via soregies.fr and send them my readings, view my contract details and bills, and make payment.

I recently had a Linky meter installed, having been given advance warning by Soregies. It appears that there is link between Soregies and a company called SRD Energies who actually fit and (I presume) manage the Linky meters. I set up an account at LinkyparSRD.fr and was able to see my daily consumption as re[ported by the Linky.

But... the daily readings stopped 3 days ago (last report 6th November), with the website reporting 'no data available'. As a bill is due around now, I looked on the Soregies website, where I was informed that I no longer have an electricity contract with Soregies. That's news to me as everything still appears to be working!

Has anyone else experienced this? Have Soregies merged with SRD? It seems very strange that there has been no communication about this by post, email or within the relevant websites. I'd love to hear about anyone else's experience.

Found in the news:
Limoges airport to close until December 11th

It's my understanding the tax fonciere is due for payment around October. Should I receive a demand from the local Marie and when? Is it possible to set up this and the tax d'habitation on direct debit? Thanks.

We have lost the signal on all channels on our humax box
Can anyone recommend anyone we can call out to check out connection please

It's September 11th today and the start of the hunting season for La Chasse.

If you're out for a walk look out for the signs of La Chasse. Their operations are usually very obvious with signs, high-viz vests and sounds of gunfire, but every year stray gunfire causes injuries or death. It's worth keeping your wits about you when it in the countryside.

Hi, I am looking for either a company or carpenter that can install a ready made garage door or build and install one. 
We are moving permanently to this area and would ideally like to secure our garage asap.
Any help or advice greatly appreciated

I have two questions
1 does anyone else have town gas central heating ? We are with Gaz de France and their prices have gone up by 51%. Can anyone recommend an alternative supplier

2 our electric supplier is Soregies are they part of EDF ?

We're lucky in Montmorillon that there are a great number of clubs, associations and activities with which to get involved. But how do you discover them?

The easy answer is at the Forum des Associations.

This annual event is a showcase for over 120 societies in Montmorilon and the surrounding area. Each club has a stall and people to explain more - and sign you up if you like!

This year's event is at the Espace Gartempe on 16, Boulevard du Terrier Blanc on Sunday 4th September. Doors open at 09:00, and access is free and doesn't require pre-booking - just turn up. See you there?

There's a Facebook page but it doesn't tell you much more that I've already said  

Does anyone know where I can find a qualified installer to fit a log burner in my house in Montmorillon?  They would need to speak English as my French is not up to technical discussion.

Hi,

We are going to be in La Trimouille for 3 weeks at the end of August working on our house.

Can anyone recommend a local yoga class to stretch out all my aching muscles after a day of work?

Thanks

Hi

Can anyone recommend a TV aerial fitter. Think I need a new aerial

Eltex (UK ) quality bird feeders 3 galvanised,1 plastic (unknown make) all in good condition (no holes)

60 euros for the 4

From 31 October to December 11 Limoges will be shut, no flights at all. This because they are installing a new runway.

I had a letter from Linky SRD today informing me that Soregies (my electrical supplier) has decided it's time for my property to move to the 21st Century with a Linky meter. It's not going to help me very much, I suspect, as I submit my readings to Soregies for each bill and have power usage meters on devices that I know can prove expensive, but I don't seem to have a choice!

Does anyone have any experience with Linky meters that they could share, whether reassuring or terrifying? I can cope...

I have 40 cardboard cartons I used to move my books from Gers. All but around five in good condition and reusable. Still made up as boxes. I haven't flattened them.

There are also three jumbo coxes that contained a bedsettee from IKEA. As new.

And about half a dozen in between.

All in Saint Leomer.

Cheers

Peter

Hi All


Its been a while but finally having a breather from diy and the never ending bureacracy. Looking to get away but require a boarding kennels for the dog. Any recommendations ?

Good morning all,
If you were, like me, greeted by a faint haze in the air and a whiff of smoke when you went outside today, don't be alarmed.

The wind is now coming from the south west so is blowing the smoke from the Gironde forest fires (South of Bordeaux) in our direction. If tonight's promised rain arrives on schedule, everything should be clear and fresh again tomorrow.
