Aye but the difference is that we know we are rubbish, and are quite happy to admit that

Hard not to admit it really.

Robert Millar was good though.

...anyway, how come the mods haven't closed this thread (unannounced and without warning) on the grounds of rule # 16 being broken?

Now I know they have jobs to do and all that.....

Maybe they have realised that British people aren't all dullards and many people speak French.

Maybe the mods realised the site rule was silly given that French was previously (for a short while) the official language of England.

Maybe not, but you could go on strike until the government sends someone around to do it for you

You said France was in a different league when it came to being over qualified to do a simple job.

Although you can change plugs without being qualified. Unlike Australia.

I can change plugs legally in Australia without being qualified.
