Re: France
Hi Goppie,
We are still in France too, and applying for an australian visa to move to Queensland as well.
Can't wait to get out of here, I'm sure we'd have loads to talk about, lived in Charente maritime too for a few years, feel free to drop us a line

Stayed in Le Havre on the way and went out for a meal with my family at 8.30pm and found France was closed!!!!
Nice country, wonderful scenery, still unsure about the natives though, maybe you can enlighten me.
PS for a country that claims to have the greatest food in the world I couldn't find a decent meal. I am also not a Philistine!!!!!
