So, David and Ann don't have the guts to apologise, so be it ! they are now pond life as far as I am concerned ! As far as the Voyagerstan is concerned, It smacks a little of a Swift post, perhaps he has signed on under another name ??? :Eeek:

I wont comment on this particular thread, but I would like to make a broader observation




not all youths with hoodies took part in looting

not all people on benefits are on the fiddle

not all Essex Girls are an easy lay

Gay people dont all have aids or HIV

Just because a person uses a wheelchair dont presume they cannot walk at all, some can.

etc etc etc


STEREOTYPING should be BANNED !!!!!

Never met Frankie, but due to the help she has given Funsters in the shit in the past she doesnt deserve these comments.

Mon Dieu... please avert your eyes my Princess!

John... I agree with your post and thank you for posting it but my Princess is not used to language like this, living as she does in an ivory tower and waiting for her hair to grow long enough so she can lower it to the ground enabling me to climb up and rescue her (while Salopian is asleep!)...:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

JJ :Cool:

Been to France once only, this year.
Found nothing but friendly helpful people, so much so we will be going back as soon as possible. Beats the jobsworths and "not my jobs" you get on many sites here.
As far as arrogant, rude, self centred people goes, there are a few on this site. Look in the mirror.
The anti French posters would probably cry "racist" if someone made the same comments about Africans, Indians, etc.
Never met Frankie, but due to the help she has given Funsters in the shit in the past she doesnt deserve these comments.
Add ill mannered to the "self" list of insults.
"Ask a Moroccan"....you could say "ask a Scot what he thinks of the English". Same scenario.
(Scots folk, that's not a cheap jibe, just an example.)

Now's the time to come on with "All the French except Frankie"

There are loads and loads of wonderful frogs !! BB comes to mind at once ! :ROFLMAO: :Rofl1

For you youngsters out there.....google Brigitte Bardot !!:thumb:

Typical FROGS Rude and bloody bad mannered. Only time i let on to a frog is when i wave at a passing motorhome before i realise its a FROG:Angry:
ps dont know how the better half talked me into going to Carcassone in 3 weeks time, must have been asleep and mumbled yes !!!!!!!!!

As the o/p I would like to disassociate myself from the above quote, which I’m not sure is tongue in cheek or not?

I have had good service, made many friends with local people and generally love France, however I do stand by my belief that I was targeted by the people at that services and I just wanted to make people aware as it is a popular first stop for many brits

I am sure it did happen to you .... the same way i have been ripped off by the man who was selling souvenirs in the house of gards , ..... i paid for something he never put in my shopping bag.... and i will never get the opportunity to have it now:Angry:.....but to me HE is the exception ....

Don t feel associated (as far as i am concerned) to the post you have quoted

We`ve been goin to France since 1977 and we have never had a bad experience, only with the weather.We found the French helpful and tolerant with us in our attempts to communicate with our limited vocabulary.We also had many laughs along the way:thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:

Amen to that. And if, because of those two posts, (and the responses to them), we all just stop and think before we make assumptions and generalisations then thats a pretty good result I reckon.

And JJ, we had coffee with them in Shrewsbury this morning - I'll send you the recording later.
