Why can't they make the simplest of efforts and speak English ? I have watched Rick Stein and he has met all sorts of stupid French people and they just spread their unshaven arms and talk nonsense, and Rick has to go sotto voce and translate for us.

We have enough problems in our own backyard with the Scotties and the Lancashire cotton mills without trying to cope with the French.

French Canadian :-(

I detest all types of stereotyping and generalizations based on race, ethnicity, or country of origin.

I'll make an exception for the french though, rude ****ts. They zink it's supercool to be the rude parson ol the tyme. **** off Francoise.

It's not just the French, whiffey. You should try and communicate with the some of thbe people where I live - it's part of my job to greet people and ask if they need any help. All you get back is a look of sheer terror on their faces and a short wave of the hand to mean "I don't speak your language"

Maybe I should try English instead.....
(Stephen. English by the grace of God, btw,)

yes, a conversation with the "team" on the BT broadband help desk is the thing of nightmares. They just chatter away regardless of whether you understand them.

They phoned me back once and I was at the zoo, despite telling them this they continued to ask me to turn on my computer and type in some commands.
