Okay, it's official - I hate the French.... They sweat on you!!

I have had the shitest day, thanks to all those sweating Frenchies and I am really, really over them!!!!!!!!!

They are the rudest, most arrigant, most disgusting, most horrible people ever, EVER!!!!! You heard it hear first, but you are bound to hear it again, they are awful...

I have already told you how pushy they are, well today they excelled themselves. I got to the tour really early, yeah big surprise, I didn't take a chair as I thought I would just sit and read a novel and then watch the race. I did not want to see the finish particularly as I thought Cavendish would win and I have seen that. So I thought I would watch some of the race on the big screen and then catch the rides after they go over the line, to get some good snaps. Well I hadn't counted on the French, I should have I know, but I didn't. They are amazing, I was standing watching the race on the telly when this French kid just walks up and stands right in front of me, there was plenty of room , but he stood directly in front of me. Well, I wasn't having any of that, so I tapped him on the shoulder and motioned him to move on, he looked me up and down in that French way and sauntered off. They are really rude, no apologies ever from the French. I had found a place by the fence and then the French arrived, they leave it until about an hour before the peloton arrives, just when the free stuff is being handed out and you should see them, they are something. First they start by getting a hand on the railing, pushing by you, then as soon as you move a shoulder to shrug or anything, you can't put it back, the french person has got their shoulder in, touching your arm, sweaty little shits. Then if you move a foot to balance yourself, you can't put it back, there is a French foot in the way. By the time you pull away from their sweaty little body, they have the other shoulder in and you are pushed out, they are disgusting, revolting and not very nice either.

I saw a young Australian couple sitting on a wooden rail, it was about 8 inches wide, they had their two young sons between them and a wire fence in front of them, the two boys stood up and two French kids jumped up and stood where they were sitting, with two others trying to join them. No joke, really, well the young Mum was annoyed, she shooed them away and said, "No we have been here for 3 hours". The two trying to get on to the bench moved on, but the other two just moved their feet back a little so the boys could sit down and stayed right there. They are like locusts, it is unbelievable. I finally gave up my spot to the disgusting woman and went further off to find another one. I found the perfect spot to get pictures and I was sitting there for an hour, all this in the hot sun mind you. Well suddenly this tv camera motorbike turns up ahead of the race and parks right in front of me, like right in front, no apologies, no nothing. I was livid. I then had to stand up, so I did that for the next hour, then just before the race arrives this French jerk of a TV cameraman comes and stands right in front of me. I couldn't see a thing, I couldn't move sideways as there were sweaty French people both sides.... I just gave up, I walked back to the station and I came home, they can shove their tour where the sun doesn't shine for all I care. I will still go to Bordeaux and Paris, but before I do I am going to learn how to say "Get away from me, you sweaty disgusting rude little French person". Mind you that is all the French I will be learning from now on , they can shove their language too. Whoever heard of doors and windows having genders, they are really weird and so is their language, I shall learn Italian, bugger 'em!!!!!

It was so hot there today that they actually had to wet down the ashpalt before the riders arrived as it was melting, so you can imagine how hot it was standing in the sun all day to be pushed around by arrigant little sods.. I really dislike the French. I have been to 26 countries and I have never seen anyone as rude as they are, arrigant little shits.

I am off to fume some more, I am quite concerned that my head may explode, I am furious!! Furious I tell you, the little shits have really gotten to me this time.

If any of you are planning on ever going to the tour de bloody France, then I suggest taking a couple of big broad bouncers with you, or getting some really pointy elbows. Oh and do me a favour, do as much damage to the little shits as you can.....

  2. Hi Leonie, i get the feeling you are a bit disappointed??? Must be soooo frustrating, to go all that way with the main intention of seeing quite a bit of the race only to find it so hard. I hope for your sake it improves but i don't like your chances. Oh well, in the scheme of things, you've been having a great trip so i guess there have to be some pitfalls. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

  3. Hi Leonie. I can see that your favourite race is French. They are exactly as I have known them to be. I guess things can only get better for you. I hope so. We are back from our litttle trip to Apollo Bay and Warrnambool. Very windy as usual but a good time had by all. When you get home you can learn French and go back to them an ear full. The war caused enormous rifts in familty over there, as when things got really hot they had to makr their mind if they were Germanm or British symppathisers. It is a rift that has never gone away
    Catch you later Leonie

  4. omg ..and you haven't reached Paris yet!! Watch out for people trying to get up close and personal there ..There's usually an ulterior motive. Paris would be just great ....if you could remove the Parisians.... then it would be perfect !... Bad manners are just unforgiveable and they are rife in France...Pity you aren't going to Spain ...Now Barcelona is the best city in Europe !
    I loved all those cows by the way ...how bizarre! And the elephant !!!! well it sort of defied gravity didn't it? Hope you have a better time though with the rest of your french experience .... but dont hold your breath as far as the inhabitants are concerned... Stay safe Lones
