red blood cells - otherwise its a waste of time...fun ...but a waste of time

looks more like a "team bonding exercise" to me.

However expect the french squad to do its usual and them to be tearing chunks out of each other again shortly.

Good business for the mountain villages though.

I plan on heading over to see Johnny H's rippling forearms at the weekend as he's just five minutes down the road and the Congo lads were freezing on a park football pitch in the rain as I drove past yesterday (I have no idea what they are doing here, apart from playing Saudi Arabia in a friendly somewhere).

You best get photos of the aforementioned rippling forearms mate.

Eat brie and surrender?

Helped your lot out when you threw a wobbly over the price of tea, though, eh? (But then TX has probably rewritten that out of history and you were freed by Davy Crockett and the Bush ancestors...)

Think we've repaid them in spades. A hearty "merci" would be nice for WWI, WWII and bailing them out of Vietnam. It wasn't so much about the Frenchies helping us during the Revolution but taking advantage of an opportunity to stick to the English. So, "thank's y'all."

Davy Crockett is a TX hero. Although originally from Tennessee, he gave his life at the Alamo. The Bush ancestors are a bunch of Yalie snides who later tried to glom on to the great state by moving to Midland for whatever reason.
