5. Because they make love more than anyone else On average, that's 137 times a year; we only manage 119 times. 6. Because everyone believes they're great lovers But when asked about Napoleon's love-making, French good-time girl Marguerite Josephine Weimer remarked that the Duke of Wellington was "beaucoup le plus fort" [much the stronger]. Today, just 23 per cent of French people are happy with their sex lives compared to 25 per cent of Brits.
Yet the Brits enjoy it more. Some might comment about quality v. quantity!

22. Because their legendary "Va Va Voom" is a lie They only spend an average 19.2 minutes on foreplay. The British take 22.5 minutes. Remind me to be grateful my hubby is NOT French!

Naa the Best is #18: I’ve been both places and there is 10 reason that there are 25 ***** resturants vs 5 *****!!
I’ll start the list -—
1. Gwad terrible over done beef.
2. Wurst that tasted like it was made with sawdust.
3. Warm Beer.
4. Cold rolls served with the over done beef meal.
Etc etal.

You Brits better save your hatred for a more insidious group living among you. With all their faults, the French will never try to destroy you.

I feel cheated. The last line says “50 reasons”. Where are the other 20?

Some English beers actually do taste better warm(ish). Still, I’d rather have a cold one.

The organ in question measured 1.25in. Perhaps that is why he could concentrate on being a military genius.

...there used to be an apocryphal sign at Calais saying “the wogs start here”. Besides, they talk funny.
To: Mike Darancette
Your reference to Calais reminded me of the time I took a hovercraft from Dover to Calais. What an experience! You couldn't see much because the sea spray covered the windows. But watching a hovercraft come up on the beach and approach the waiting room windows was quite a thrill. Sadly, I see the service has been terminated because of no more duty-free. See http://www.dover-kent.co.uk/transport/hovercraft.htm

But at least the French have teeth.
