Invasion of Europe

[celandine]

I am proposing to invade Europe on the 10th of July. The U.S. Republican Party are all for it, but I have had great difficulty persuading the French and the Germans that this is a good idea. However I remain convinced that France possesses items of mass consumption, and I have reason to believe that they can deploy an extremely ripe camembert at 45 minutes notice.

My coalition will be joining at Ramsgate Marina and we will establish a beach-head after landings at either Dieppe or Fecamp. Progress will be slow because we will be going against the tide of public opinion - mais c'est la guerre.

Mick.

Hi

As long as you bring lots of Euros (It's the European currency, 20% stronger than the USD, better than that old GBP ?) I don't suppose the French will mount an effective defense.

Just showing that history repeats itself !

Oops ......... hope my French wife doesn't read this.

Tongue in cheek

You'll probably end up in Dunkirk, fighting on the beach, and having to leave the country in a hurry....again.

'Ere, just a minute. When did we cease to be part of Europe? You can't invade it - you're already there and don't let they there eurowranglers tell 'e different. That nice yottie Mr Heath made it so.

Take it from a spy on the spot. The real weapon is not camembert it's Pont l'Eveque.

You might be going against the tide of public opinion in france, but I reckon that at least half of england would be behind you!! Especially iof you capture the vineyards/supermarkets first!!

Digging for victory

Henry the Cat had dug up Dear Hearts prize beetroot when I got home last night.
It may ease the anger a little if they were given to the cause - where do I send them?

Well, I hope Belgium doesn't have to be the host, as we were it the last few times, Waterloo, Ypres, Bastogne e.a.

Cornishman,

You are of course geo-politically correct. I suppose I was using the word "Europe" more in the sense used by the famous Times headline back in the days of British Empire:- FOG IN THE CHANNEL: EUROPE ISOLATED

Baldric , we have a cunning plan : these beefeaters like ale , now pronounce this in flemish , aal , don't we have an excess of pig's aal in Flanders ??? so let them come over , we'll flog our aal to them pretending it's ale and they won't even spot the difference /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
