Zep 0 #9 July 6, 2005 Quote I'm sure Chirac will be saying they need that long to upgrade the restaurants, too... Well done London, Chirac can eat shit, Oh wait a minute he's french he does, Anyway according to frances top chef who works in a London resturant, The British with their cusine have now topped the french. I'd love to see the tourists faces when the find out that to enter central London with their hire cars they have to pay a toll Gone fishing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remster 24 #12 July 6, 2005 QuoteThe British with their cusine have now topped the french. Well, I'll cal BS on that one. Yes, on the very elite level, the top chefs in England are top notch. How they compare to US, French, or Urugaian chefs, I'll leave that to international experts and competitions to decide. You can eat very very well in London. I remember a very good meal I had at the Oxo tower. That being said, the average food in average places in England is no where what it is in France. IMO of course. You may love chip butties for all I know, and that your right! That being said, Congrats London! Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr2mk1g 10 #23 July 6, 2005 I think it's got a lot to do with how lazy we are. You're right next door - we'd have to put more effort in if we wanted to take the piss out'a someone further away. Look at how bad we take the piss out of the Welsh the Scotts and the Irish - we share boarders with them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #25 July 6, 2005 London Olympics. This could be interesting. From my experience in London, "Car Dodging" would be a good demonstration event. If rhytmic gymnastics and ballroom dancing can be events, why not have a practical event like Car Dodging? Or, "Straight Line Road Engineering." Brits would probably get their butts whipped at that one, so I dont' think we'll see it. Congrats to London! May your total debt from this not exceed 10 billion Euro...
