Hi

Thanks for the feedback Roger!

I'm in the process of setting up a news/forum website...hopefully unlike the other forum sites that appear to become petty and bitchy. I'm currently running it off the back end of my web design website please take a look. http://www.brittany-internet.com/BrittanyNews/tabid/53/Default.aspx I've just posted a piece of news I picked up about the Gendarms yesterday.

Feel free to register and post stuff into the forums. I'm about to start letting people know it's there and getting people involved in the site. I aim to get some select users involved to submit news and to help mediate the forums.

One thing I'm considering is adding something warning Brits over here not to become too much like some of our er... 'ethnic cousins' in the UK. It appears that lots of Brits are setting up their own clubs and are making very little effort to integrate with the French or learn the language.....If this continues we will be looked upon just like the Hindi speaking members of British society :( in our own Brit communities etc..... What do you think?

Small minded prejudice is most rife in those that are ignorant. The fact that Bretagne and Grand Bretagne share much of the same Celtic blood seems to have escaped someones notice - Also the fact that the Normans spent a lot of time in the UK intermingling - The English and the French are very close not only in culture but in their origins. The question is really down to language and integration. We don't come here with a different religion, we don't come here and sponge of the government, we come with money and fresh ideas and we contribute to society here - there are of course some small minded English people as well who are an exception to the rule.
