Fabulous apt. in Vence, good location.
About the Owner
Guestbook comments from the manager
Hello Debbie,
We really enjoyed your apartment and the location was splendid for all of our trips to various points. Coming up from the A8, after about the second roundabout I think, we always stopped in at the Boulangerie (next to the Poulet a Go Go). What wonderful midriff expanding treats!
I think our most memorable trip was to the Grand Canyon du Verdon via the northern route last Friday. It was just a good outing - tense for a period but now we only laugh. Fifteen minutes from Vence going up the mountain (what a change of scenery) we saw two deer jump across the road at the shooting range, no less. At about 1200 metres it became that much more... err... "enjoyable" (perhaps frightening) because it had snowed in the early morning. The road was at times icy and partly snow covered. The views were gorgeous and there was no one else on the road - completely quiet. Coming down the mountain to Aiguines on the other side, we saw that the road had been closed! It made sense but there was no road closure sign at Comps or anywhere to discourage us. We survived - we are hardy Canadians!! That and a lunch spot with friendly folk calmed us greatly (the local herb liqueur for my petrified passengers might have also contributed).
Louise and Sarah were great and efficient. Everything in the apartment worked well and was more than sufficient - we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. I mastered the garage with even a larger car than originally anticipated.
Thank you again most sincerely,

Nice but desparately needs a new bed
The condo is clean and remodeled with a truly fantastic view! For the most part it was a nice stay but there were two of us each with our own bedroom. When I put my hand on the bed in the second bedroom I actually only felt springs and bars. Neither of us could sleep on it. I tried one night, was absolutely miserable, and ended up sleeping on the couch for the rest of the trip which was unfortunate. I would recommend replacing that bed and then the place would be much better. As the reviews say, there is a good amount of traffic noise, so it's a personal choice as to how that would affect your stay. The owners are timely and efficient and were good to work with.
Fabulous apt. in Vence, good location.
We were delighted with the apt. the cleanliness, well equipped & spacious. We loved the view from every room. Your manager helped us out with a problem the same day we contacted her. We definitely would recommend your apt. to our friends.
A great stay
As advertised, the apartment was great, very clean and modern, great kitchen and excellent views. The master bathroom is quite small (especially the sink) but we managed to get around that.
The property is very well managed, so there is someone there to meet you and show you everything and not that we had any problems, but if we did, I feel like someone would have been available to look after it.
The apartment is easily accessible and has a very good location in Vence. Only thing to know, and not a complaint, is that it takes about 15-20 minutes (no traffic) to get to the highway/sea so if ur visiting Nice/Antibes/Cannes, etc... it can add a bit of time to your trip.
We had a truly great stay, would definitely recommend.
Thanks Debbie!
Great apartment. Spectacular views. Noise problem.
Clean and very well epuipped apartment with spacious rooms. We loved the panoramic views from the balcony + we were able to walk to the old town of Vence within 10mins where there are lots of restaurants, shops etc. The bed in the ensuite room was very comfortable. We stayed for 3 nights.
Unfortunately, the next door neighbour had a very noisy party, on our last night, that kept us awake until 2am and so we departed feeling grumpy and sleep deprived the next morning. Up until then, all had been quiet and peaceful. It was such a shame that our stay in France ended in such a way. The apartment is lovely but the walls are very thin.
Lovely apartment
This apartment has everything you would need for a lovely holiday. It is well-situated for discovering the surrounding area by car and an easy walk into the local shops and old town. This is a very beautiful area of France and Vence is a very special place. The views from the balcony and the roof terrace are spectacular.
Fantastic stay in Vence
It is not often that what is promised on a website meets or even exceeds you expectations. Everything that is promised was the there and it is truely a home away from home. The apartment has a fantastic location and very central , you can easily get to the glitz and glamour of Monte Carlo and we even went up into the Alps the one day. We would definately recommend this apartment to all our friends and family looking for accomodation in the South of France!!!!

Why I'm mad about Marion Wine Bar
I increasingly feel overwhelmed by too much choice so what a relief to eat at Marion where the food menu is limited to a dozen dishes marked up on the white washed wall. Marion is first and foremost a wine bar so the wine list is much more extensive but it is also Andrew
Going casual at Estelle Bistro
Farewell to the pink and blue tiles and goodbye to the degustation only menu. Northcote's much loved Estelle restaurant has been reinvented as the more casual Estelle Bistro. The restaurant looks slicker with polished glass along the back of the bar and brass accents and moody lighting giving the front room an intimate feel.
Taxi Kitchen gets a revamp
Cheaper and more casual is what diners want apparently. That's why PM24 in the city has closed to be replaced by Lucy Liu's kitchen and bar and now Taxi Dining Room has been reinvented as Taxi Kitchen. I was invited to visit to check out the changes. The white tablecloths are out and more bar
Speakeasy tram and express lunches at MFWF 2014
And just like that it was all over. Melbourne Food and Wine Festival is done and dusted for another year, and like every year I wish I had managed to make it along to even more events. This year I started with a bang with visits to The Immersery, Eat.Drink.Westside and the Travelling Samovar. Then
Showing off Melbourne at Saint Crispin
It's interesting seeing your home city through an outsiders perspective. The lovely Niamh, a friend from London and author of Eat Like a Girl, was in Melbourne last week for a press trip and the pressure was on to find the perfect spot for a dinner catch up. I settled on Saint Crispin in Smith
Morris Jones: Smoke and mirrors
At first glance Morris Jones, at the Prahran end of Chapel Street, appears to be a bar. A serious looking bar lined with exposed bricks dominates the warehouse space and the only times I've been in previously has been exclusively for drinks. But an invitation to eat dinner at Morris Jones made me realise this
Syracuse reinvented
How times have changed. Years ago when I first started dating Meat-and-Three-Veg we used to go to Syracuse after working late on Friday nights. We'd order a bottle of wine and a few tapas style dishes to share. The food was nothing special but we always loved the wow factor of dining in such an
A cheeky lunch at Vue de Monde
It was just your regular weekday when I got a text inviting me to lunch at Vue de Monde. My friend Joyce had been invited to a special lunch event there and kindly asked whether I wanted to come as well. Hell yes! I hadn't been to Vue de Monde since it was located

Kill Doctor Lucky
Paizo Inc.(based on 3 ratings)
The Origins Award–winning board game from James Ernest and Cheapass Games comes to your gaming table in a new full-color, high-quality deluxe edition featuring components on par with the best European board games.
Kill Doctor Lucky pits 3 to 7 players against each other in a race to see who can kill Doctor Lucky. The trick is that all the other players want to do it first and will stop at nothing to prevent you from having the pleasure. And the old doctor has earned his nickname well: he's got more lives than Rasputin and an uncanny knack for dodging your best traps. But his luck can't last forever. Before the game is over, someone is going to kill Doctor Lucky—wouldn't you rather it were you?
Everyone starts in the Drawing Room, and everyone wants to kill Doctor Lucky. Players move around the mansion looking for weapons and trying to catch the old man alone. Trying to kill the Doctor is pretty easy, but every other player can play Failure cards to stop you. Doctor Lucky's luck runs out eventually, though, and you just hope you can catch him when it does.
This new edition now includes the "...And His Little Dog Too!" expansion—three rules variants that feature Doctor Lucky's dog, Shamrock. He's just as lucky as his master and has an annoying habit of making you feel fond of him.

Kathy Cassidy
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Annealing in appropriate atmosphere affects considerably transparency and photoluminescence (PL) of lithium thiogallate (LGS). Intense absorption at 8.0 μm after annealing in vapors of or is related to vibrations. Annealing in vacuum produces intense blue PL in a 2.74 band, which transforms further to a 2.98 eV band: both emissions are excited in the same 3.4 eV band and are associated with two types of crystallographically nonequivalent anion vacancies (-centers). The 2.98 eV emission of a more stable -center decays exponentially with decay times and 218 ns at 80 and 300 K, respectively, and quenches to 650 K. PL in a 2.0 eV band, excited near the fundamental absorption edge, with a large Stokes shift and fast temperature quenching is related to recombination of the self-trapped excitons. LGS with -centers can be used as a light-emitting medium in different laser and optoelectronic devices.

"Chaotic, Claustrophobic Shopping At Chatuchak" Chatuchak Weekend Market Tip by euli
Chatuchak Weekend Market, Bangkok: 110 reviews and 162 photos
Small, tight lanes and many many small stalls that sell similar items make up this humongous market. This market is so big, you will feel overwhelmed at first, but if you take time to walk through the lanes starting from the very end and making your way slowly back to the station, you will feel that you have accomplished a great feat.
You'll be spoilt for choice, but don't forget to bargain. When you ask them to lower their prices, they may sometimes not be pleased, but will offer a slightly cheaper price than they first mentioned.
May take you a whole day and a bit more to really see everything.
Address: Mo Chit Station, Bangkok
Directions: Simply take the Skytrain to the end terminal called Mo Chit which is exactly where the market is located.

6:44 am
commits crime based on having his name and he has to travel from denver to leave his kids to florida and drive her back from florida to denver on a road trip and it is this horrifying experience because her character is so bad that have you no redeemable qualities about her whatsoever that she begins to annoy the audience. you have a character who is annoying in a movie but not annoying the audience. these jokes, i mean there are all the funny parts. it was all in the trailer. you've seen all the funny parts already and those parts aren't that funny to begin with. and jason bateman's character has to be the dumbest guy on the planet. he is making these crazy decisions. this was one point where i counted the number of speakers in the theater. i think it was like seven or eight because i was so bored. now, rapper ti, he has some funny parts in the film.
6:45 am
there are some decent scenes later on but her character is so bad that you don't care about the manipulation of her character becoming redeemable. i gave day one and a half out of five. skip. it it is not funny. all the funny parts are in the trailer. that is the best thing you have to look forward to. >> can we at least look forward to the next movie, side effects. >> yes, side effects is amazing. steven soderbergh, i think he is one of the most diverse directors working today. he is retiring. this is his last big screen feature film. enhas done traffic, sex, lies and videotape, oceans 11, erin brockovich. this deals with a couple. she takes a described drug that gives her some nasty side effects. it is a very deceptive and interesting plot line.

6:48 am
hours. heavy rain now pushing up into prince george's county, push into parts of charles county as well and this too without it being a wintry mix will likely cause some travel issues. that rain is really coming down. could be some sleet mixed in here ads well as we have reports of pretty cold air along the surface here. temperatures right now running in the low to mid-30s so temperatures very cold. very c big storm system cranking up off the coast. this will be the one for the record books, of course, up towards new york and boston. what is happenling here is there is a phasing -- happening here is there is a phasing process that takes place that. will take place too late for us to see much in the way of winter weather other than the wintry mix we are getting early this morning. as that storm pushes off to the north and east, we'll have light rain around here with temperatures about 40 and later tonight be maybe some with respectaround snow will move in as the storm system exits and really bottoms out. there is your area of low
6:49 am
pressure at 1:00 this afternoon. really starting to develop. watch the snow off to the north and east. there is that wraparound snow. we might see a few bands of light snow showers even here in washington later this evening. when all is said and done being 1, maybe 2 feet of snow. cold and very breezy this afternoon. winds are really going to pick up later this afternoon and tonight as that storm cranks up. 28 the overnight low with winds out of the north appear west here gusting to 40. very blustery. light rain tonight, could transition to snow showers for parts of the area. howard county as you get up towards baltimore, northeast maryland, best chance for some of that snow later tonight. there is your accu-weather, seven-day forecast, cold and windy tomorrow. good day to go to the movies, join kevin and temperatures get up near 50 next monday or
6:50 am
tuesday. >> all right. we'll need that. hopefully, they'll get the temperatures up north to melt all that snow. >> once you get a big snow pack, it takes a while to melt that off as we know. >> hello. i'm so disappointed to hear about identity thief. >> i was too. >> i had high hopes for that. >> melissa mccarthy. maybe she can get it right the next time. >> i do want to see side effects though. >> guess what it is time for. ask tony and tucker, most popular segment some morning television except for kevin mccarthy's movie reviews. this is the segment where tucker barnes and i put our big heads together to answer your most pressing questions weather- related or otherwise. it all has to end at some point. today's question comes prosecute yes, sire. there is a popular saying, the calm before the storm. is there always calm before the storm. >> a straightforward question. >> good question.
6:51 am
>> off the top of my head, since i've done no research, i'm going to say -- well, before some storms, yeah, it does get very, very calm. >> in fact, there is a calm before certain events, certain storms. we have some video before calm before a storm. >> the typical calm we have here before the storm. >> it is people making a run for the milk and toilet paper. >> we should feed this -- speed some video up. >> the panic that takes place. >> generator being bought. >> snow blowers. >> you mention the word snow. >> you w what is fuy abou that. >> when you got a historic storm, i understand the stocking up on supplies. for our typical winters here when you talk about maybe 4 inches, the amount of food and toil the paper are buying, it is like they think they'll be trapped for weeks.
6:52 am
>> i know. i went to the store yesterday and we have said it would be rain here. middle of the afternoon, you couldn't believe how many people were there. i thought this is not normal. get away from the toilet paper. step away from it. don't give into to the urge. >> that is funny. >> it is really -- it really depends on what storm we're talking about. all kind of different storms on planet earth. i think there is some truth to the thunderstorms that we see process of a thunderstorm developing is air gets drawn up into the storm where it is raining and where you are getting the thunder and lightning in the storm. but that process, air goes up into the top of the atmosphere and comes out and descend out in front ever the storm so you get calm conditions before a thunderstorm. that is why it can get very still identify little while and around here, it gets hot and humid. in particular, thunderstorms, there is a calm before a storm. when you are talking about mid- latitude cyclones like this big area of low pressure, this
6:53 am
nor'easter we're dealing with today. not sure there is a calm before the storm y not much. and people commonly report, for example, in tornado alley, that again primarily in the spring and summertime, when you have a severe weather breaking out, sometimes before a tornado, there are reports that things seem eerily calm. it is like everything quiets down and you can kind of feel in the air that something about is to happen and then you get the havoc of the tornado. >> that would be related to thunderstorm activity because tornadoes of course develop into thunderstorms primarily out to the west. >> it depends on the storm system. for example, this storm system that is about to hit the northeast, when you get with that type of system is a gradual deterioration of the conditions in the atmosphere. so it is not really this sudden calm. it is just thin start to get from bad to worse. >> hurricanes for that matter. the hurricane that moved
6:54 am
through a few years ago, the day after irene, incredibly beautiful. >> even after some of the thunderstorms in the summertime when it is hot and humid and the violent worth comes through. >> so calm before certain storms. >> right, right. >> right. >> jessie, hope you enjoyed that. thank you for the question. great question. if you have a question you would like to have answered, all you need to to is go to myfoxdc.com and click on the weather tab. >> what is it? >> i little bob difficult in. >> shelter from the storm. >> very good. >> classic dylan. >> let's check in with julie now to get latest on traffic. >> milk, bread, toilet paper and don't forget the bottle of red. >> absolutely. >> cloudy over here. upper loop of the beltway in

RALPH WALZER AND KATHERINE WALZER, PARENTS OF ROBERT WALZER, DECEASED, PETITIONERSv.WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION APPEAL BOARD (GLOBE SECURITY, INC. AND SECURITY INSURANCE GROUP), RESPONDENTS
Appeal from the Order of the Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board in case of Robert Walzer, Deceased, Ralph and Katherine Walzer, Parents v. Globe Security, Inc., No. A-80021.
Edward H. Walter, with him Joseph J. Pass, Jr., Jubelirer, Pass & Intrieri, P.C., for petitioners.
Kim Darragh, Meyer, Darragh, Buckler, Bebenek & Eck, for respondents.
Judges Blatt, Williams, Jr. and Craig, sitting as a panel of three. Opinion by Judge Williams, Jr.
[ 69 Pa. Commw. Page 469]
Ralph and Katherine Walzer (claimants) appeal from an order of the Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board (Board) affirming a referee's decision that awarded them only a funeral allowance, and not dependency benefits, for the death of their adult son, Robert Walzer.
Robert Walzer (decedent) was employed by Globe Security, Inc. as a security guard, when, in December 1975, he was killed in the course of his employment. He was 22 years old at the time of his death. Following the decedent's death, the claimants filed a Fatal Claim Petition, asserting that they were partially dependent upon their deceased son's income.
At the time of the decedent's death, claimant Ralph Walzer was employed and earning a gross annual salary of $12,584. Claimant Katherine Walzer was an unemployed housewife. The claimants owned their home free of any encumbrances, and were able to accumulate savings in excess of $1,300 during the year 1975. The decedent was single; and he resided and ate at his parents' home. His gross salary at the time of
[ 69 Pa. Commw. Page 470]
his death was $7,821 a year, or $106 a week: out of which he made payments on the loan for his 1975 car, paid for car insurance, bought clothing, and acquired other items incidental to his life-style. At the time of the decedent's death, the claimants also had another son residing at their home, 19 year-old Raymond Walzer, who was employed.
In the proceedings on their Petition, the claimants sought to establish that, in the year preceding their son's death, their household expenses exceeded their income by more than $4,500. The claimants asserted that for the year 1975 their household expenses amounted to $17,083, and that their income was only $12,584, which was the salary of claimant Ralph Walzer. The claimants' evidence in support of their contention consisted of various documents, and testimony which, in the main, came from Mrs. Walzer.
On August 7, 1978, after having held several hearing sessions, the referee entered a decision dismissing the claimants' Petition. The referee concluded that the claimants had failed to prove that the decedent's earnings were needed to provide them, or either of them, with the ordinary necessities of life for people in their position. Following an appeal by the claimants, the Board, on February 14, 1979, remanded the case to the referee for clarification of his decision.
On September 22, 1980, the referee issued a new decision, and again dismissed the claimants' Petition. In setting forth the bases for his second decision, the referee made the finding that the claimants' valid expenses for the year 1975 were $12,526, instead of the $17,083 they had alleged. The referee also found that the claimants did not need the decedent's earnings to maintain their scale of life, and that, moreover, the claimants had been subsidizing the decedent. The referee added that he found Mrs. Walzer to be of questionable credibility in her testimony. Based on those
[ 69 Pa. Commw. Page 471]
findings, the referee concluded that the claimants were not, in any way, dependent upon their deceased son. The referee did, however, award the claimants a funeral allowance of $1500.
On May 21, 1981, the Board entered an order affirming the referee's second decision. From that order the claimants appealed to this Court.
In the instant appeal, the claimants focus on the referee's computation of their total expenses for the year 1975. They argue that he erroneously excluded or reduced certain alleged expense items, and that he thereby arrived at an expense total that was less than their income for 1975. More specifically, the claimants assert that the referee erroneously excluded the cost of a new refrigerator and a new sewing machine; that he improperly allocated to the claimants' two sons part of the alleged food expense; and that he erred in excluding the insurance premiums and car repair bills the claimants allegedly had paid on behalf of their younger son, Raymond. The claimants also theorize that the referee erred in excluding from their list of 1975 expenses the income tax refund they received in 1976, and in excluding the moneys they added to their savings account in 1975.*fn1
Based on the foregoing assignments of error, the claimants argue, in sum, that they validly proved the excess of their 1975 expenses over their 1975 income; and that they, therefore, had been partially dependent upon their deceased son.
The test of dependency, in a case such as this, is whether or not the child's earnings were needed to
[ 69 Pa. Commw. Page 472]
provide the parents with some of the ordinary necessities of life suitable for persons in their class and position, and that the parents were, consequently, dependent to some extent upon the child at the time of the accident causing his death. Leipziger v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board, 12 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 417, 315 A.2d 883 (1974); Regent Bottling Co. v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board, 10 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 8, 309 A.2d 265 (1973).
The term "dependency" as used in the Workmen's Compensation Act*fn2 contemplates actual dependency, which must affirmatively appear in the record as a fact. Id. And, where the parents are claiming for the death of an adult child, they must bear the burden of affirmatively showing the fact of their dependency. Leipziger; Regent Bottling Co.; Davis v. Welsbach Corp., 201 Pa. Superior Ct. 520, 193 A.2d 621 (1963).
The instant claimants, in addition to alleging a certain level of household expenses for the year preceding their son's death, also sought to establish their partial dependency by alleging certain contributions from him. The claimants' evidence concerning the contributions consisted of the testimony of Mrs. Walzer. She testified, at one point, that the decedent had contributed between $15 and $35 a week for food. Mrs. Walzer also asserted that the decedent had contributed $300 toward the purchase of the sewing machine and $200 for the refrigerator. As we have already noted, the referee found Mrs. Walzer's testimony to be less than credible with respect to the decedent's weekly contributions for food, and his contributions for the appliances. According to the referee, Mrs. Walzer was evasive and contradictory on both points.

In a workmen's compensation case, the referee may accept or reject the testimony of any witness in whole or in part. American Refrigerator Equipment Co. v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board, 31 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 590, 377 A.2d 1007 (1977). Given the referee's rejection of the testimonial evidence of the decedent's alleged contributions, we must accept the referee's finding that the decedent was not actually supporting his parents, at all.
Even where it is established that the deceased child had made contributions to his parents' household, such contributions are not considered to be support if they simply represented payments by an adult child for services and benefits he received from his parents. Cornman v. Workmen's Compensation Appeal Board, 56 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 413, 424 A.2d 637 (1981); Regent Bottling Co. If contributions are of such a nature, they are not sufficient to sustain a claim of partial dependency by the parents; and that is so even if the parents have expenses that exceed their income. Cornman; Regent Bottling Co. Clearly, the same result must follow if there had been no contributions from the decedent.
Since the instant claimants did not establish, by evidence the referee found credible, that the decedent had in fact made contributions to the household, their challenges to the computation of their expenses become irrelevant. Even if the claimants did, in fact, have expenses that exceeded their income, the absence of proved contributions from the decedent defeats the claim of partial dependency.*fn3
