Don't miss the Alpine mountain stages in coming days ! Didier |

Hi Barry, Didier,
I've been to France several times ... fantastic place and as long as you wear the Aussie Kangaroo badge the locals speak English and are lovely. If they think you are "English", then, forget it. There are no tickets left and "sorry, only speak French". ;D ;D ;D
Funny thing human tribes ... and the bigger the tribe the funnier it is (unless of course they have fanatical suicide bombers or nuclear weapons .. whew, time for another crack at "Man of Mystery" complete with hard parts !! )
Regards
George

Hi Didier, Barry George
It always amuses me that the Americans seems to conveniently forget that without French money and backing they would have lost their War of Independence, also without the information given on enemy positions by ordinary French citizens, the invasion of the Normandy beaches would have been far worse.
