1) most foriegners lack all ability to queue and wait for something
2) french people have no respect for other peoples vehicles.
3) french have the strangest set up on roundabouts EVER
4) french have masses of roadrage (amusing to watch)
5) its quite hard to drive with a bottle of milk between your legs although it does leave you with cold giblets which is a weird sensation.

just a few of the things i have found out over the weekend/today

what have you learnt lately?

when i was in Nice i noticed that most of the cars that were parked up at the roadside were parked bumper to bumper. so your bumper was fucked up and you couldn't get out anyway. France is not a placed that i want to hurry back to.

When we were at Le Mans last year we went for lunch in a restaurant in the town, and sat outside. Some americans on the table opposite us had a mini golf set and were playing in the road, everytime someone took a shot they grabbed a road side barrier and pulled it across the road, causing cues right down the road and even making buses stop. Some of them found it amusing, for the most of them they were so angry. It was hilarious though. I love the way everyone doesnt give a crap at Le Mans, and all the middle aged men turn into school boys
