    Examining a map, I notice that there is an area to the north of Sedan
    called Floing.

    Floing.

    What a wonderful place name.

    It's also the noise that I predict Fr. Jack will make when (and if) he
    falls into bed.

    120 miles from Calais. Realistically, you'd need to be boarding the ferry
    at about 9:00AM.

    There's been a recent thread on alt.frog.hoteliers:

    "Ah oui, mom ami. Zey drink lahk zer poissons, but zere are...
    Preublems..."

    "Preublems? Whurt kahnd euv preublems?"

    "Zer 'breaking chaises, peessing zer bed et heurnking in zer bath'
    kahnd"

    "Ah, je meust 'ave zer leetle theenk avant je haccept zer beuking, zen"

    I think it'll be OK, Des is on there now telling them all about us.

    I'm just wondering if FJ can recall which French town he had his wallet
    lifted in. Because the Hotel we stayed at did a *gorgeous* bottle of
    white wine, which I would like to buy if I could.[1] Searches on the
    'net have proven to be fruitless.

    [1] The wine, not the Hotel.

    Aww, it looks bloody nice, too. Perhaps the owner knows the guy who
    owns the hotel in Caudebec?

    Fucking hell, woman. That's *harsh*. First you nick his wallet, then you
    tell him how nice the wine you bought with the contents was.
