I read that on the train today - not surprising really, I'd have
thought? France is painted as a sort of Shangri La, but despite it's
many attractions you don't have to be Mixi to spot some drawbacks.
(There's La Poste, for a start ...)

Herself was reading the paper, and invited me to guess what a French
chef might consider to be the weirdest British custom. To my shame, I
did not answer correctly ("Eating crackers with cheese."). Those who
have eaten with me in restaurants know that I want my cheese served at
room temperature, and with plain bread.
