Signing on and off for a while

Posted Aug 30, 2007 by john

I am going abroad to Europe to be precise for my vacation beginning tomorrow.
The way I feel tonight ? I just might decide not to return to the UK, or to be more exact, Scotland.

All joking apart, I’m going to spend some time in Brittany, France a place which I love and where life is just so much more relaxed than here or in your great country…..the US of A.

What I love about that part of the planet is the sheer genuiness of the people, their kindness and their understanding of other people from different countries.
I have been there several times in the past and I never tire of it because of the warm welcome and the friendliness I find time after time.

These are real people, unlike Parisiens, who despise IMO folks like these, because “They are peasants”.
What these arrogant B……s forget is that these self same people, at least the older ones did not capitulate to the Nazis, unlike Gen De Gaulle and Paris, and as we all know De Gaulle ran off to London for the duration of WW11 then demanded to return to Paris as a national hero in front of the liberation parade. Thank God the American General Eisenhauer stopped that.

The Bretagnes as they are known are a very proud Celtic people and they have never forgotten who actually liberated them, and it was not De Gaulle!!!

Anyway, I’m going now and I’ll post when I return

Sir John

There is a small private distiller in Kansas that wants to produce a "malt whiskey" but needs some help. Are you intersted in talking to the owner/chief distiller of this company. They are really small company and I thought that this may be an opportunity that would benefit both parties. Let me know if there is any interest Tapadh leat.....Bob
