    Linc's plenty round your way by way of resistance. Also folks might look into Eadric the Wild over in the Welsh borders and Midlands.

    What have the French ever done for us ?

    Other than French ladies who speak in that oh so sexy accent.
    French bread, French Kiss, French letter

    But other than that, what have the French ever done for us.
    Do they have a certain je ne sais quoi ?
