Quite honestly, no one believed they'd make it. At least it's boosted French morale in these bleak times...
Personally I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Les 15 on Saturday against the Springboks!;)

Goodness knows how many people made daft promises on what they would do if the French team qualified for the World Cup.
Did you see that one French MP stated that if France qualified he would wear flips-flops into the National Assembly the following day.

Link to article.

At least in these extremely troubled times, it gives me renewed enthusiasm for current MP's..... :sneaky:

More up your street Tweedie, did you see the weather presenter? I have tried to Watch the video but failed, she looks a bit like Millie.

Hi Blackie,
Yes, I read that one of the French newscasters had promised to appear 'in the raw' if Les Bleus qualified. Think it was on Canal Plus. Didn't watch it though - Mme TP had other ideas! :frown:
