I Wonder How Many The French Will Buy?

Notice how Sky news are trying to blame it on the 'Germans'?

Steady YMB, the anti British will be along soon!

[youngmafbog]

I'm waiting TTT.

[Mamyalynne]

What a wheeze?? Have you money to burn? Stamps are pricey you know.

[paddywak]

I don't think they like us any way,so a bit of salt in the wounds wouldn't make much difference

[youngmafbog]

No, but I can spare a quid to wind up the French!

Just imagine if they got 12 million of these from each working person.

why would the French buy British stamps?

Did you by any chance buy this one?

12 million of these from each working person? That's overkill, surely?

I can't play anyway, I don't know anyone in France.

It amuses me the way the jingoists bang on about the supposed superiority of the English over other Europeans.

According to the ancient historian Bede the original tribes of this country were quite cowardly.

So it would appear that the current brave backbone was inserted by the conquests by the Italians (Romans) and the French. Ironic, isn't it.

I knew the anti british cheif canary wouldn't let you down YMB!

British stamps are still collected in France, and vice versa.

It's staggering to read of the British - and French - incompetence that allowed Boney to escape from Elba in the first place.
