Oops sorry, I forgot to mention I saw that magazine (well the advert outside the newsagents) a few months ago. I tend to forget people are interested in death and health scares as well as squids, Portsmouth, grammar and bricks. http://www.parismatch.com/People-Match/Mus...-cancer-131217/ There is also a Le Monde version but it is also in French and to read all you need to subscribe at a price which I guess is what we can expect for the English language press soon.

Monoclinic 39 Posted December 14, 2009 So would it be fair to say that he is just a French Cliff Richards? No, he's a cretin not a chrétien. Well, I don't actually know that but I do know he's tried to be a Belgian and is now a Swiss or something to avoid paying Monsieur les impots.

Dave to the Grave 11 Posted December 17, 2009 Yesterday I saw a group of men walking around with their hands in the air. Turned out it was the French practicing for World War III..... They were there the day before too, but perhaps you were part of the USA group practising arriving really late for World War III. Around the time of practising testing WMD on civilian targets and allocating reparations. This was the most popular option amongst the US groups. The practising starting your own war against teeny weeny countries and not doing so well, had a certain 'retro' feel that appealed to some, and would provide great material for some historically accurate films. The least popular choice however was the, practising having your hands in the air, pointing up to the sky at low flying aircraft. Rehearsing indignation and surprise in front of TV cameras, that what you do in a foreign land can actually have consequences in the USA, is particularly important. Getting off topic for a moment, whilst there will be some giving thanks that JH's tour is cancelled others may not. For those here is the man himself pretending to be a war hero. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the DL had an FB "You like this" comment then my thumb would be raised. Can I add in that I saw a group of men walking around shooting at that group of men who were walking around wih their hands in the air. Turned out it was just a bunch of USAians practising their friendly fire routine. Iaculore iam, reputo laxus or summat! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never pretended that the US is always correct in its foreign policy. But let's take a look at your swipes at us. Arriving late for WW II? So sorry that a lot of Americans had a strong desire not to get dragged into another of your periodic wars. Practicing against teeny weenie countries and not doing so well? Like you folks in Algeria or before our ill advised venture into Viet Nam? The last one is my favorite. I suppose all those civilians on 9/11 really deserved what they got, eh? I know some of our activities in the struggle against Islamo-Fascism were not what I support (like Iraq, e.g.) but when France has been so overrun by fundamentalist Halibuts that you have to grow a beard and your wife has to wear a burkha, we'll be sure to stay home.
