dean1991 116 Posted September 26, 2019 23 minutes ago, msc said: I bet you were all wondering if Giscard d'Estaing would say anything about the death of his very long term rival Chirac. And...he has. Apparently in old age, Chirac used to tease VG'dE that he had won 2 terms to Valery's 1. Oh those statesman hijinks... Bad Google translate: Maybe the translation is spot on and Valery just thinks Jacques done one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,637 Posted September 30, 2019 Giscard was standing unaided and generally looking like he'll have the last laugh on his selection this year at Chirac's funeral a few hours back 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,573 Posted September 14, 2020 Is this the same Giscard d'Estaing that was said to be in excellent health only last year? Elizabeth II heard and sent out the hitsquad.
