    I love some of the old trawler stories. When I was growing up in a fishing port there would always be some story or other of a set to with the French. One time after a set to the entire fleet set sale to France (about 30-40 boats) , blockaded the port, went into the town, got drunk and smashed part of it up. Fisherman, you've got love 'em.

          But unlike Blair, Cameron has to pick on a country that we can beat easily and quickly... ah yes, see what you mean.

              Wouldn't France be a bit big for us to take on these days?

              Perhaps somewhere like Andorra would be better, if it isn't too far by sea.

                  No, Andorra would fight back.

                  France is fine.

                    Andorra's possibly worth having though.
                    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014
