Well now, the result of last week’s competition when we asked you to find a derogatory term for the Belgians.
Well, the response was enormous and we took quite a long time sorting out the winners.
There were some very clever entries. Mrs Hatred of Leicester Said ‘let’s not call them anything, let’s just ignore them’ ... and a Mr St John of Huntingdon said he couldn’t think of anything more derogatory than Belgians.
But in the end we settled on three choices:
number three ... the Sprouts , sent in by Mrs Vicious of Hastings... very nice ;
number two..... the Phlegms ... from Mrs Childmolester of Worthing;
but the winner was undoubtedly from Mrs No-Supper-For-You from Norwood in Lancashire... Miserable Fat Belgian Bastards.
I’m just going by what the Field Marshall says.
‘99 Luft-walloons, sitting in my living room
There’s old Franz and little Dinah
And Big Ned in my recliner’
I would like to take a moment from cat-confusing to thank the Walloons, Flemish, and the little French & German dwarves in the machine workshop who made my Browning Hi-power.
It is a fine piece.
Now. Get out of my comfy recliner, Ned, or I shall taunt you a second time as a wiper of animal food troughs and have the Walloons boil your bottom along with other unpleasant things you would rather avoid, hear me now and believe me later, a ha!
According to Wikipedia, Peter Minuit was a Walloon.
Bastogne is in the area that historically spoke Walloon, but I don't know what the Walloon word is for "nuts."
“...are Luft Walloons the name for German-speaking Belgians?”

I believe earlier this evening I heard a report of some comments Barack Obama had on the Belgium election. I think the gist of his comments were that the Luft Walloons were Austrian-speaking Belgiums.
Perhaps the CIA’s Afghanistan station chief told him that.
Walloons and Flemmings ?
Maybe the CIA guide to Belgium has the information.
