No it was predicted text. That's why did the next post gedimat.

Distrilec in France is excellent as an online supplier for almost anything from electrical, tools and supplies, a bit like RS Components. But you need an address to send stuff to, i guess a campsite may oblige.

We're at Carcassonne. I need a flexible drive for a power drill. Not sure if it's called that officially. Let's you drill round corners....

I'd have to organise delivery with a campsite. We're moving every few days. Not many open just now, and I prefer to avoid them in any case.

Very kind offer. I'll try some of the other options first. Our ferry from Rotterdam is March 21st so timing might be a bit tight.

Went there yesterday. Drew a blank. Big place, and I thought I might have missed it. Staff couldn't find it either. Do you know if their website shows one?
