Frog 'n' Sausage

We've just moved into a house and found 2 calor gas bottles in the shed.

They're not the ones I've seen before (these are short, fat ones). One is green. One is blue.

See picture:

They're empty and we don't want them - how should we get rid of them?

Thanks

[Using a master slide) I can import pictures, I can (using "control" bar) make the pictures always on top, I can make hyperlinks, I can make picutre hyerlinks (to other PPT pages)........ but I can't make picture hyperlinks to other PPT pages WHICH always stay on top (from the master slide)

Any ideas??

I'm looking for the used car dealership is S-o-T called "Quick's".

I get 2 postcodes for it

ST4 6NN

ST4 6PQ

Neither of these are "quicks" on Google street view.

If you have local knowledge of the area (or can actually find it) please let me know!

When I push the clutch peddle down to change gear, the car squeals fairly loudly. It does this when it's moving and when stationary.

There's a hint of a squeal in neutral too (but not as loud)

It's an 1998 Peugeot 306 that's done around 89000

What could it be and how long have I got before it explodes?! I can't get to the garage for 2 weeks because work is being **** about time off.

Thanks in advance!

Salut

Je cheche une ville qui s'appelle "Romans" dans la commune de Vitry-le-François" mais elle n'existe pas....???

Je la cherche à cause de cette phrase:

"Votre enquête porte sur les "ghettos" des petites villes de province, de Romans à Vitry-le-François. Comment ces petites banlieues sont-elles devenues....."

merci d'avance

Hi all.

I'm in my final year of uni of a languages degree. I have a 4000 word translation project to do and my supervisor is getting me down.

Firstly, he/she is not a translator. Despite being skilled in the foreign language, his/her suggested translations are rather stilted, too literal and don't flow like an original piece of English. My other tutor for another language, who also works as a professional translator, is much more for the translation of ideas/concepts/information/feeling on the reader rather than finding a word for word equivalent for every word. Whilst I understand the question of "balance" comes into translation - the non-translator tutor produces some really dodgy sounding English - all for the sake of translating every word "faithfully".

Secondly, his/her lectures were more a "let's have a go a random texts" than actually learning about translation. I've learned nothing from him/her.

And finally, my current problem is I'm doing an extended translation for this lecturer. He/She's expecting me to produce a literal piece, without moving punctuation and translating word for word. Trying to make my text read like "proper" English results in being advised that it's not exactly the translation for the words used in the ST. Since this is a newspaper article,I doubt a newspaper would publish stilted, frenchly-phrased articles, just for the sake of "faithfulness"....

Half rant, half request for help from translators. What is your view of a non-translator teaching translation? Do you prefer literal, stilted translations?

I feel like I'm caught in a battle between producing a good piece of writing and literal nonsense covered in footnotes just to please him/her. He/she might be the one marking it - but surely they should be good at translation themelves!

Je lis un livre, dans lequel j'ai lu

"il faut .......... et se renseigner pour une bonne orientation professionnel"

C'est un prof qui parle....

Merci!
