Hello can anyone point me in the direction as to where to buy English oblong pillows in France.I made a really big mistake by not putting a few thousand of them in the van that bought our furniture down.I have now got  millions of pillowcases but no pillows.Oh what a fool I am

p.s I am prone to exaggerate somewhat

Not sure what you mean by English oblong pillows... but if you look here, you can select your pillows (oreillers) by sizes (bottom left, under taille).

Thanks for that.I mean just the ordinary size pillows that come with any duvet set  in England.Not the square ones that are generally on sale in France.

Loads of places around here sell them now.  Like Leclerc and Carrefour.  They do those really good "sculpted, dimply" pillows now in the UK size oblong shape, too.  And they sell the pillowcases to fit.

I buy mine every time I go back to the UK.  I cannot get used to the French shape and, like you. I have thousands (not millions) of UK-size pillow cases.

But if you are not going back to the UK soon, this is a French site (that is also in English) and if you click on pages 2 and 3 of the pillows lozenge, there are UK shaped pilows, which can be delivered.

Years ago it was true that almost all pillows in France were square (or bolsters).  But there is no shortage of UK shape pillows in the shops now.  Not as many as the square ones, but not that hard to find.  And loads on websites like Cathy's mentioned.
