Re: Meanwhile, Parisians are getting a bit hot under the col
Seems that the locals have destroyed it. Place Vendome is beautiful and not the place for this sort of 'art'. Well i hope the Gendarmes find them and prosecute them otherwise it will just make a complete ass of the law, with it gone there must be a big hole left at the Place Vendome. No hole - it w...

Re: English votes for English MPs
For many years, I have felt that there is something wrong with the current voting system. Devolution means the Scottish Assembly has control over many subjects - health, education - so, for me, Scottish MPS should not have votes at Westminster on subjects where thieir votes affect English only subje...

Re: Everybody needs them
Can't answer questions on a 'show' that I have never watched. On the other hand I can say that I know a lot about, at least, 8 of my neighbours - speak to them on a regular basis and know them well - it is nice here.

Re: MPs to get 10 per cent pay rise
A fair point. Walk round the city and a very high percentage of people working here earn a lot more than an MP. How often do they work in London? I'd get double what they're on if I went to work in London. Tube drivers aren't on far off. I'd be interested to know how many others get £140k in expens...

Re: MPs to get 10 per cent pay rise

Re: Wine
For regular use I stick to Cotes du Rhone. Favorites are Bourgogne - Fleurie, Reuilly, Mogon, Moulin a Vent.
Never had a Bordeaux that I rated.
