The Stuarts in particular were constantly let down by the French whose promises of vast armies to the rescue invariably became odd ships hovering round the coast to take away yet another aspirant who had fallen into the trap of believing Gallic promises. And I wonder how many brogachan (Highland lads) drew in a shuddering breath of horror as another French-supplied Exocet swooshed past (or in the case of HMS Sheffield, struck) during the Falklands War. No, whether supplying Exocets to Argentina or nuclear assistance to Iraq; collaborating with the Nazis or torturing people I've met in North Africa, I think it's time we got on the French case. We could start by giving The Auld Alliance its real name - The Auld A'Lyin'. In all honesty, this being a bigot is a very difficult position to maintain as I have so many French and English friends who keep getting in the way of my pure and crystalline hatred. I don't suppose tax collectors or politicians are ethnic groups are they? I mean, there MUST be somebody I can latch onto! M�cheil Rob MacPh�druig Dr�idh:duine-uasal
