See Calais and die
Or so it would seem. l'Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques (or INSEE to its friends) has done a bit of stat shooting, and has discovered that folk in the Deep North have the lowest life expectancy. Knowing the area, I imagine it is because faced with Dunkirk / Calais etc or death, the latter is quite appealing. Conversely, Ile-de-France is the best place to live to a riper old age, this being the Paris region and being the closest match to London plus home counties.
Elsewhere, our Gallic chums are still pre-occupied with Johnny Halliday going into tax exile, De Villepin testifying over Clearstream and the PCF choosing its candidate for the Presidential election - Marie-George Buffet. I do not think she and the other Buffet would have much in common.

I wonder if they also die on average before legally entitled to collect their pensions.
Congratulations on a 7th C I hear that one above you cheated by getting non combatants to vote. I feel this blackguard should be outed !!
Who is the cheat?
Off-topic, but I await you post on the Croydon Contender with interest. After your brilliant anti-Ken campaign it seems ironic (almost suspicious) that a man with Croydon running through his veins should emerge at this stage. Front up, what is your involvement?
"I do not think she and the other Buffet would have much in common."
Warren or Jimmy?
P - I am utterly fascinated by your post but also mystified , put a foolish if strangely attractive chap out of his misery and explain.
I know a Croydon Mayoral contender who had a piece in the Exopress recently , is that who you mean?
Christmas crackers
Whats orange and look good on a Liberal - Fire
Two Muslim Extremists walk into a room ..Boom boom
I may well investigate Mr McKenzie...
V - Either I expect... Buffett J has a song called 'Spending money', which I would guess is not a paean to redistribution of it.
Off topic, but what is the best thing to play on a banjo?
A flamethrower....
C
are you thinking of standing?
If so count me in for some canvassing (unlike that newmania bloke)
ps
if you win I want the right to drive a souped up range rover through hyde park whilst shooting geese
No congestion charges

Blimey. I'm moved. Can't say I am tempted though.
According to Dale you are on R4 with him....

Way back lost in the mists of time when I was young (and I'm still foolish) I discovered that a can of WD-40 with the tube attached made a very effective portable flamethrower. Fortunately I escaped, repeatedly, from suffering burns of first, second or third degree.
The hitch used to make pipe bombs as did all his school friends )+:
Nobody thought of it more than a schoolboy prank in those long lost golden days , nor firing airguns in public places.
Fun indeed PH. Shooting golf balls off tees from 200yds was one of my fave pastimes.
Golf ball at 200m?
you need to give the Hitch some windage lessons, I can hit an ants balls at 100m but much further and Im done (apart from luck)
,just cant read wind
I didn't know Johnny Halliday had gone into tax exile. Where did he go? It couldn't be a Francophone country as they're all part of Metropolitan France.
I saw him on a couple of discussion programmes when I lived in France, and he seems to be a genuinely very nice man. And intelligent.
I expect you're all on your way to the pub now and these threads will fizzle out.
verity
the face tucked fucker went to Belgium!
Suddenly remembered that his dad was mussel, chip and mayonnaise eating surrender monkey and saved himself a fair few quid.
Wrong x3. He's in La Suisse.
Swiss, eh? Well, wherever he goes to having his own money - EARNED BY HIM - being extorted by tax "authorities" to be redistributed to oiks by a corrupt government, that is a good thing.
Nice that it's on the same continong so he didn't even have to take a flight and check in and get "checked in" in a monitoring,Big Brother, sense.
I TOLD you he is intelligent. And, as I said, on his TV interviews and discussion programmes, a nice, thoughtful man.
People who spotted my deliberate mistake in my first paragraph, consider it corrected.
