they are used to it
and they still believe in labour having rights long lost here since st Maggie |
|
By:
Labour have rights, yes, but why should French labour disputes effect flights that are not even stopping in France,?
I've been to France maybe 4 times and I was caught in 2 airline strikes on those occasions over the years, unbelievable. Now they are at it again this year, have they not got Labour Courts to hammer out these disputes before they escalate.? A strike every bleed'n year is ridiculous. |

Very sensible the French, they know workers pay and conditions are more important than a holiday !

go for it - I love the french attitude to disputes love it
I never forgot that geezer who took a screwdriver to the new macdonalds they were building in a french town vive la revolution - man the barricades!!!! |

Jose Bove - a couple of accents missing but that was the man. Sported the handsomest of moustaches as well, an example to us all.

I am a francophile, at least I think that is what the judge said when he pronounced sentence!!! Oooops!!!! Love 'em. Hi-jacking sheep carrying lorries and all that.

By:
I'm not much of a Francophile as it happens, but I will take my hat off to the buggers for this aspect of their character. Where is our Bove? Where is our Beppe Grillo?
Our inability to vote in large numbers for jokers and knaves and commit criminal damage on a large and public scale demeans us imo. This rare trait of nobility aside, they are a pretty rum set of coves. |

Strangely, the French hate the rosbifs, but I have never found this. Perhaps it is because I have never experienced Paris?? Everywhere I have been it has been ok to very good - if you make an effort to fit in and try to speak the language, respect their culture etc, you have a good chance of a pleasant time.

Paris is a beautiful City, you should go. Eurostar is splendid for such jaunts.

By:
very friendly but they think we are mugs
|
|
By:
We are mugs. We wasted a lot of British lives in the defence and reclamation of their ingrate land. And we're such mugs we'd probably do it again.

Stuck in Faro. Again. Flight to gatwick cancelled, booked on 10am flight to luton but good chance that will be cancelled too.

the french are a bit nutty in an eccentric kind of way.
unpredictable and willing to make a stand against things they don't like...... In the UK we are conditioned to accept everything levelled at us. Proles to work and serve |

The French have it right on Sundays, it's a family day, and articulated vehicles are not allowed on the roads.
