Ask how much it will cost and what exchange rate the French bank will charge you to transfer your money to your UK account, you will need your UK accounts IBAN number (normally on your bank statement).
Then check out how much it will cost you to use www.xe.com, they are sometimes a bit cheaper.
If the amount is more than 10K then you will be questioned (money laundering check), so have the proof of where the money came from (pre warn your bank as suggested earlier).
My wife sends her salary home from Saudi each month using then bank transfer method without problem, I work for a UK firm, so get paid in pounds, so no worries for me
