I've spent a bit of time in Paris (I have family there). The "Parisians are rude pricks" concept is an enduring one, especially amongst a certain type of parochial British.
I've never really experienced this, certainly no more prickishness than you might get in central London.
I think that capital cities are a law unto themselves, and should not be considered a useful descriptor of a nation in general.
The universal law applies in Paris as it does anywhere - treat others as you would like to be treated yourself, (and before anyone asks, I'm a devout agnostic).

I´m glad I didn´t have a gun is the same thing - how would you feel if someone posted oh - Till is so strange, I´m glad I didn´t have a gun or else I would clean out his gene pool.
It´s offensive and there´s no room for that on this board.Seriously - you can take comments like this to any other Forum - but not here.

@tfar:
Jeez, the French are the first ones to admit it, which makes them bearable. The Germans would defend themselves or censor you for saying something like that. My GF is French by the way. Have been with her for 10+ years. I'd say (have said) that straight to her eyes and she'd agree. So don't be holier than thou. If you were French you'd quite certainly agree instead of being offended. Chances are you'd help reload.
When you've lived there for years, you will know what I'm talking about. Besides, I have made it clear that the Parisians are a particular bunch and my comment was referring to them in particular. I wouldn't want to take out the entire people, of course. You will see the same effect (to a lesser degree) with Mexicans talking about the people from D.F.

P.S. So before you cut my entire comment out, did you check back with any French people or even other moderators or forum members to see if they find this offensive? Or was it another personal decision? Censor first, ask questions later!

Ok, I've had a little financial windfall and feel the need to reward myself with some consumption. I would like something completely left-field and weird so I am opening the floor for suggestions - anything goes - hit me! The only criteria is that it has to have IH levels of quality.
Thanks.

OK, so I went out with my mate Robin last night for a couple of drinks, well 6 or so pints and a few tots of rum later I (apparently) had agreed to buy one of these (well, Robins getting one and I'm not going to be out done). Mrs G came home tonight to find me and Robin Googling it up (as he says) and I have permish to get one after the summer…...

crap, that must have been alot of fun. i have always thought an open 40 setup for singlehanding would be perfect or maybe a farr 40.

They look way cool Simon, but I want a tiny lttle baby that I can launch at the crack of dawn on my own and potter round the penninsular casting poppers for Bass. Sorry darling (that's Mrs G, not you). I meant something we could pop over to the island and have a romantic picnic together…G
