Those places would still be decent and having low prices, and the Alsace might have a moderating influence onto prices in Switzerland
To change it in order no longer to have those places as "across the border" but as members of the…
Vinni ,

Nice to see this posting :) I am not Greek but I lived in Melbourne and Sydney for almost 9 years. I moved to Switzerland 9 months ago, it's very nice to meet with people who lived in Australia before. Welcome to Switzerland :) maybe we…
Well i don't think the St. Louis amber beer we found in Geant wasn't the same as the one at the Cafe. I like them both but they are different - i need to find out what one the Cafe served - maybe their own??
HOW TO IMPRESS A WOMAN
Compliment her, cuddle her, kiss her, caress her, love her, stroke her, comfort her, protect her, hug her, wine and dine her, buy gifts for her, listen to her, respect her, stand by her, support her, go to the ends…
I find our neighbourhood children quite brazen too. I am surprised that such young children (3-5 year olds) are allowed to play outside unsupervised - in our case in a busy driveway where they do not realise the danger of running in front…
The great advantage of the UK system is 30 amps are available on a ring main. I use a UK portable camera system that requires approx 20 amps, it just has 2 x 13 amp plugs that can be plugged in side by side all very easy. Here you need to…
dont you hate old miserable commuters who have sharp sticks shoved up their bottoms and who have forgotten that they were young once and probably even more so annoying than the sprogs they see on the train today. Probably due to the…
I have also felt this heat - actually felt it moving up and down my spine - and I always felt very relaxed after reiki - like I'd had a good massage, which is amazing when you consider you haven't been touched. What turned me off, was…
That's an interesting approach to "anti-competition". Maybe they're hoping that by the time you leave the train, you'll be gagging for anything to eat so badly that you'll approach the nearest waffle stand and buy 5 KG of Belgium's…
I had dwarf hamsters for a number of years and they are normally very friendly and easy to look after but can be a bit too fast for very young children to handle safely. Just make sure you check the sex of your pair carefully if you don't…
The key for me is that she wouldn't be happy if her daughter followed her in the trade - how can she be proud of what she does?
How does her daughter feel about the book being on sale, and her friends reading it, I do wonder. Being 15 is…
As I've said, but been unable to find any references for, my understanding is that since the bilateral agreements the 60 working day nights is what's used to determine residency, and this is adhered to on both sides of the…
In Switzerland you can also rent a villa in even cheaper but not 100 meters from the lake, near Lausanne and furnished, perhaps in the countryside, next to the fields and cows!:D
Anyway if you have thoroughly enjoyed the place, try to…
well, that is just the same. once you make a deal in england, that's it*. where chains collapse is before the contract has been signed. i.e. before any deal has been made. most of the time the 'offers' and 'acceptance' are 'subject to…
Bzz, I might be interested on sharing a return rental, but I can't do it before beg/mid-July because that's when I go home to Brussels and see how much stuff I actually have to move.
Otherwise someone suggested I rent a van in France (eg…
Following Sky's lead... here is the recipe from the Quaker Yellow Corn Meal box.
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup Quaker Yellow Corn Meal
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

If you can afford the time-off, get out of Switzerland and go to one of the Goethe Institut in Germany for an intensive 2 or 4 weeks. I attended the one at Prien am Chiemsee, highly recommend it, lots of stuff to visit in the area. Close…
That's about right for summer prices which are valid in some less popular places but the court hire is very seldom included in the hourly rate. Expect to pay: CHF60-80 for a decent one-on-one lesson. Most definitely the charges do not…
