at the least the germans fight in a war, the french just surrender.

I'd have liked to have passed by with that conflagration going. 'er indoors would have extinguished it just ****ing herself laughing.

From 50'.

Poor bastard, can you say what the cause was Eevo?

But but but, they did engineer the world's first Extremely Heavy Duty Reverse Gear setup.

S'funny you say that. No really. My new French vineyard next doors bought a new Kubota Slasher a couple of years back & I don't think I have seen it in Reverse gear no matter what. I reckon he thinks I am waiting to take the ****. He just goes around & around in the same direction most of the day but never seems to reverse. Maybe he waits until dusk?

I'll leap out in front of him one day & drop a big bloody rock in his path. I wonder if he will throw his hands up in surrender &/or make a quick retreat back to his fort he's named Maginot or drop all his equipment & run like old ****ery?

Only parts of the above tale may be a fib. You guess.

They are building our new subs - wonder if they know where to fit the drain plug.

Suddenly? I lost faith when they announced it.
Big diesel boats; surely it’s a joke.

PSA purchased Opal and have to continue making the current Commodore although I'm not sure why because they aren't selling too well.
If they purchased Land Rover it wouldn't affect me because I'm not really interested in any of the current cars and especially, from pictures so far, the new Defender.

As Gavin mentioned.....being a pomme there isn't much love between the English & French (for some reason they don't like us bringing up the Battle of Agincourt)
