Guest sibon Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Crikey - it says something when can't even take the micky out of the French without the PC forum police jumping on you. Bernard Manning will be turning in his grave (assuming it's big enough) Where did they jump? You seem a little paranoid. I suggest that you eat more cheese.

whiteowl Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Where did they jump? You seem a little paranoid. I suggest that you eat more cheese. Jumped a couple of time, was gonna quote them but you're right - I need more Gorgonzola, Doh ! that's Italian. I guess we're not allowed to discuss their conduct, what side they were on, whether they surrendered or not, during the war either - but I guess that's all in the past(a) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be much better off with a Bleu D'Auvergne. And some lovely bread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinz Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Crikey - it says something when people can't even take the micky out of the French without the PC forum police jumping on you. Bernard Manning will be turning in his grave (assuming it's big enough) But Jacklakeland isn't "people"...he's troll. Anyway how would you know about people? you're from Woodseats and you're all vegetables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_Sleeps Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 In WW1 there was a sad lack of competence in leadership in both the British and French armies I find it brutally amusing that in WW1, it took the French army a good few years to consider not dressing up in bright colours to go into battle. The uniforms are fantastic, but the idea of camouflage is lost on them. French uniform Such madness in that war. Jumping out of a trench at dawn in bright red clothes and running towards a machine gun. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our troops marched on through sniper fire, refusing to take cover and wearing scarlet jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
