Thank you for the encouraging words on french paperwork. (in our business it is simply hell each time we deal with RSI and URSAFF and all those little friends that are "here to help").
:) It must be an Oz thing, you make the same mistakes as Sian.. it is Bon courage, because Le courage not La courage. :-)
By the way Kate don't let any POM give you a hard time about The Ashes.. :)

I know Sigean quite well, the Zoo and all. I used to spend summer holidays at Narbonne Plage. :) We find you very courageous to go through the citizenship paperwork. Sian has been here 8 years and her 10 years "carte de séjour" is running out but we are a bit slack on the french paperwork.
I guess I lived in Australia way too long (12 years)!! :) Have a great end of year in Paris.

I lived in Sigean between 2003 and 2006 before coming back to Narbonne! I still have a house in the village which I am trying to sell. As you say, a shame we weren't on the this Network then!
