New Zealand is certainly a beautiful place to live in, too bad they expect a big earthquake "anytime now"

My best friend has a place in Casteljaloux and I visit him often.
Clam, if you happen to drive through Auvergne from St Flour to Espalion, do stop at Laguiole and ask for the restaurant where they serve a superb aligot, and enjoy it. You can have it with local Marcillac red wine, Bonnes vacances !

The French and Germans alternately tried to control Europe by military conquest, they now realize it is easier to do through the EU. Joining the EU to place one's nation under their thumb.
Sorry, BTS, but my point was not about any conquest of Europe by large european countries. It was rather referring to the numerous opportunities England has had in the latest 50 years to have its say in european undertakings, which it lost because of its insular spirit, as its leaders thought that the country would manage better if it were going on its own or in structures which it set up as rivals of the ones that were created around France and Germany. Later on Britain has jumped on the european bandwagon but did so cap in hand, not in a controlling position. I'm referring to the Common market in 1957 but also to Ariane project, Airbus and, of course, to the euro, not to mention its numerous "opt out" stands in various EU regulations. As far as European construction is concerned Britain dwelt for too long a time on its past imperial grandeur or on its supposed privileged relationship with the US and has failed to grasp the sense of history. True, that is changing now, but slowly.

I’d like to live in the south of France if it wasn’t for the fact that there are a load of French people living there.
The problem with the Brits is that ever since the middle age they have kept thinking that they deserve France more than the French do

I agree with you, David, most of these opinions were expressed decades ago and were dealing with traditional England that existed, say until the early sixties, before the immigration wave. Now many elderly English people whom I know don't recognize the society they used to know, that's part of the reasons why some of them have elected to settle in a quiet retirement place abroad, for example in Dordogneshire, well as long as the rate of the £ would allow them to afford it.

very profound Aligot
Give credit to Winston CHURCHILL, de GAULLE, political analyst André SIEGFRIED, German poet Friedrich VON HARDENBERG, they all emphasized the insularity that permeates Britain's politics. The latter added that every Englishman is, himself, an island.

Superb, and written in typical WT style. Was it the same author who once wrote "is it suitable for JWs to own cats ?"

First of all, Britain is an island, then an Island and, in the end, an Island
