“We had spent years of holidaying in France, then a few years ago, we finally bought our own place. As we started the long process of renovation, we found that we couldn’t find a dictionary of building terms that suited our needs. We wanted something that was easy to use and in a simple alphabetical format.” 

“Every time we received a price from a French tradesman, we found that it was full of words that we couldn’t find in any ordinary dictionary. Experience as a Chartered Surveyor in the UK counted for nothing, of course, 

except for making it even more frustrating.” 

“We started compiling a list of words for our own use

 – and the whole thing just grew from that.”
