Gmail - Reply to letter in the MSN Group "Brits around Beziers"

My original letter concerned any information from other sufferers of N9uf Cegetel-Aol! It didn't take long to get a reply! REPLY Nr 1: Hello I wrote to Brits A Beziers some time ago about my experiences with Neuf It turned out quite costly to leave.They answered none of my letters and just demanded more money for no service In frustration I paid up just to get away and get a telephone service.I will look up my old correspondence if I can find it and send it to you.They are a law unto themseves and being cut off from all communication was a bit of a nightmare .We had just moved here and I had signed up to a cold call from them.Our French neighbours say this firm is well known for their bad service and their dreadful attitude to their customers. Regards Peter I'll keep slipping in any further replies, although it is the holiday period, and people have other things to do than worry about N9uf-Cegetel-Aol! -- Links to other iwmpop pages: http://www.webspawner.com/users/mrle...

Gmail - Just For Grins 7-24-07

Just to show I'm not that bad really! From the web Site Worldstart "Just for grins" Newsletter : ---  One day in third grade. "Who would like to do the first problem, addition?" No one raises their hand. The teacher calls on Tommy and with some help, he finally gets it right. "Who would like to do the second problem, subtraction?" Students hide their faces. She calls on Mark, who gets the problem, but there is some suspicion his girlfriend, Lisa, may have whispered the answer to him. "Who would like to do the third problem, division?" A low, collective groan can be heard as everyone looks at nothing in particular. The teacher calls on Suzy, who struggles, but eventually gets it right. "Who would like to do the last problem, multiplication?" Johnny's hand shoots up, surprising everyone in the room. The teacher finally gained her composure in the stunned silence. "Why the enthusiasm, Johnny?" "Becaus...

Don't you like the facts?

I know that I have already touched on the subject, but "actuality" obliges! I recall as a kid spending many a torrid hour in things like Sunday Schools (as if Monday to Saturday wasn't enough) and 11am and Evening services in my Father's parish church, being drilled into beleiving everything and anything written in the Holy Bible! Everything that is, apart from the things that didn't fit in the plans of the Church! As I vaguely recall, there was this episode of the Book of Revelations (Chapter 6, I think), which wasn't talked about a great deal, since it involved the total annihilation of the Planet, the Church and its members along with it! I recall, vaguely , that it concerned the 4 bad lads on horseback, floods,famine,pestilence, death and disease, war and other nice things (I know, that makes at least 6, but the horses were quite big ones). I recall also, being told, often (when something had gone wrong in my planning) "You see - the Bible told you ...

partyinkingston.com / features / beer and general drinking troubleshooting chart So click on this and see what the problem is, and how to solve it! Since you are all off on "Hols", here is the last little tip Mr le Marquis can give you! From now until Sept/October he will be concentrating only on important issues, it's a serious business going on holiday you know! Today - the 14 July 2007 - French National Day - Mr le Marquis kept himself (like all Aristocrats) to himself, felt his neck, tenderly, from time to time, and this Marquis (being a Foreign one on top of it all) left the French Peasants to celebrate in a misty sea of pastis, beer, wine, Champagne etc - all of which would have been forbidden fruits under Aristocratic rule! Mr le Marquis had the pleasure, later on in the day, of prodding prostrate peasants with his walking stick, in places they would prefer not to be prodded, and amused himself, ROYALLY in so doing! The weather, Chez Mr le Marquis, is as usual, sun...

N9EUF Cetegel/AOL, France. J'ai le malheur d'être client de cette Internet/Téléphonie Compagnie, depuis circa Février 2007. Depuis Avril 2007, j'essaie de quitter cette IPS, car le plupart des services payante NE MARCHENT PAS ou très limitées. Voici un petit liste des problèmes rencontrée depuis Février 2007. Bien sur, tous les incidents ne sont pas documentées, parce que ils sont trop nombreuses, et (avec bonne volonté et bonne coeur) j'avais acceptée, au début, que il peut arriver des problèmes pendant la période d'installation. Cette période d'installation (a mon avis) est bien et belle fini maintenant, mais les problèmes ne le sont pas! Problèmes Générales: Coupures très souvent: Coupures du ligne ADSL et/ou Téléphonique sont très embêtant. Aucune avertis, aucune raison n'est donnée. Ces coupures peuvent aller de quelques minutes a même quelques jours! A ma connaissance, depuis Mars 2007, j'ai eu 9 coupures d'un durée de plus que 12 heures cha...

Lotto, money, debtfree and other things!

Gmail - Mitchell, Ian: Confirm Shipping Address Appears that I've won ANOTHER $3,000,000. Frankly I'm getting fed up with winning all this money, so I thought I'd make you all an offer! I will transfer my rights to the highest bidder amongst you all, the only thing you have to do, is FIRST PAY ME(!) then get on the links given on the page above, and confirm your "pin" number (which involves paying a certain amount of money to somebody relatively undefined) All you have to do then is sit back and wait until your $3,000,000 cheques trundle in! SO - GET BIDDING!!!!!!! Heard about another way of earning money on the side, here in France, which may be the better way! Just a little bit illegal, people are selling their Driving Licence "penalty points" (you are allowed to collect a dozen or so, for minor infringements of the law, before being automatically banned, and having to retake your Driving Tests) to people who MUST keep their licences ( for jobs etc). ...

Multilingual Dictionaries, Thesaurus, Glossaries, Abbreviations, Synonyms Here's something you may be able to use! I've tried it with English to French and English to German, and it works reasonably well, once you've understood the system! Of course, it's NOT human, thank goodness!

Video Vauvert 2nd try with titles I hope! - I'm, baffled - Dailymotion Share Your Videos

Video Vauvert 2nd try with titles I hope! - I'm, baffled - Dailymotion Share Your Videos Well, I AM baffled, perturbed, disturbed and all the rest! Not easy all of this, this video took first of al 875MB's of space, and was therefore refused by all of my upload tools, as well as filling my PC! It couldn't be sent anywhere, so - back to the drawing board, and I've got this far! We're no down to around 18MB's, but with 2 minutes extra (where I repeated accidentally the house for sale part at least 3 times! Sorry! What I do like about this version are the titles, towards the end of the video. After that you can stop it! I'm going on and on with the "moviemaker studies" and one day I'll get it SMACK ON! This video also proves that there ARE parts of Europe where the sun shines/is shining, and I'm in one of them! (iwmpop) mr. le marquis.

The story of a bug!

This is the story of a little BUG! As the lucky subscriber to a French magazine, I was allowed to receive the gift of my (now known to you all) video camera, of relatively bad quality, but at least it worked, and I could practice the various publishing methods with it! Well - it worked all right for a couple of months, then, suddenly, it didn't want to know any more, whether because of my bad filming qualities, or simply because it had been made in China and didn't speak either French, English or even German - I don't know! I tried everything, and being stubborn, I finally downloaded what you aren't supposed to download, the driver for this infernal thing. They are very explicit - do not download the driver if you are running Windows XP Pro! Now I know why! This company, called "arcasoft" give away, with the camera, their system of photo treatment, which I don't really need, but it is automatic in the normal installation. Of course there is the normal amou...

Les assurances associées aux cartes de crédit

Les assurances associées aux cartes de crédit Assurances associated with your credit cards - Interesting for everybody, how you can be covered and for what, at no extra cost, IF YOU USE YOUR CREDIT CARD to pay for things (in French, but you can try the "translate page" on Google toolbar) Credit cards involved are basically all the well known ones, mastercard/vista/barclay etc... etc.... Why pay for In/Assurances when they can be free, whilst on holiday?

OK, OK, I know you're all excited, thinking about sun, sea, s*x and sand, but it's all relatively normal, it comes around at least once a year, so CALM DOWN!

Of course, the famous, eternal question is the weather! Well Mr. le marqu...

Chippie and Tinkerbelle will be well pleased! I've spent the last few days arranging some bits and pieces for those privileged tourists who are friends of Mr le Marquis. The other friends who prefer some lost thing called "Espagne" will regret their decision. Imagine, I've been able to arrange golf every morning, on a smaller course than normal, but the owner is such a splendid and enthousiastic gentleman, he even comes to get you at 6 in the morning, and beams in your face when he gives you your "special" golf ball, together (if you so wish) with your club. You only really need one (1) club, for this is a SPECIAL golf course, known only to a selected few, amongst them being the husband of Tinkerbelle - so to say, a magic course, which enables you to swing a leg and an arm, and youdon't risk spending all morning searching for your balls, in the high undergrowth I've even arranged (or will do) a little outing to do all the Huntin' - fishin' a...
