ETA: Do I have a vague recollection that you studied in Reims?

You are correct. I was in Reims. I do not have many happy memories of the place. Nasty people.

I still bear the scars of getting beaten up by three blokes just because I was English.

The Bretons are a different matter altogether. Nicest people I've ever met.

Did you know that most French Canadians in my neck of the woods trace back to Normandy?

Yes, I did know. I used to stop in Reims for lunch in the years I was living in Germany and vacationing here. That and visits to the Cathedral is the sum of my knowledge of the place.
