@ asker (and bérengère) you may know or can imagine, whether it deals with power supply for hairdryers or not, but from the context it is unclear, whether "sèche" means "sèche-cheveux" or not and whether "seiche" is a typing error.
In any case, please enter the correct source and target terms into the KudoZ glossary to allow other peers searching and finding.

I think maybe I have ... My 53-y-o hands are as dry as the cuttles they throw back into the sea. I couldn't believe that the first time I saw it at Boulogne-sur-Mer - I didn't know there WAS anything more to a cuttlefish than budgie food. Maybe that says something about the French and the English!

Wot, Sheila! You've obviously never suffered from cuttlefish hands, a dreadful affliction you get from being pecked by budgies.

If the problem is with "seiche" I suggest you try looking for "sèche"
