At what point may we be sure the equine has assumed room temperature and the
tenderizing process has ceased?

Shame on you, Reg, after what Jacques Chirac said about

Was that before or after an English resturant won both
the 2004 best resturant in Europe and best resturant in
the World titles? ;-)

=============================

Cec, I am not aware of what Jacques might have said about English cod
and chips. Everybody to his own tastes.

But I do object to the USA tendency to confuse politics with diet, to
mix up CIA invented non-existent weapons of mass destruction, and oil
wells and pipelines with frogs legs and snails.

French politicians have weighed up the present international situation
very accurately and honestly. And acted, not always in accordance with
their own interests, but everybody's.

After all, in 1793, they were the first of the true revolutionaries.
Vive La France! And, of course, their wine.

Well Reg, Jacques said he couldn't believe that London got the
olympic games contract because, compared to French food, English
food is not even fit to eat, or something to that effect.

I think you will find Cecil that Chirac's comments were made before the
result was announced and probably did little to help his cause.

You are assuming the French actually wanted to host the games. I suspect
they have spotted it wasn't going to make money and wanted out.

I suspect our hosting the games is going to cost the UK big time.

I will post this at both the bottom and top, trying to please everybody at
once. In the Great Scheme, is this subject really worth these multiple
posts? Those who rage on about this subject consistently need to find
something more useful to fill their time. Maybe volunteer work?

I'm sure even you Reg can afford something a bit more up-market!

What Chirac said about English food was spot on.

(I'm glad he commented on ENGLISH food and made no comment on
the cuisine of the other British nations!)
