Lived there for a year and return frequently

 

 

Up there with Sydney and New York

yes dirty dear shit hole

To many Frogs for me :D

I have to agree with Little Whitt, horrid and dirty in places, and the nice parts are ridiculously expensive.

 

lots of nicer places in France to see

I'm doing the last stage in September

 

Palace of Versailles to the champs élysées

 

Can't wait

 

Got to cycle from London to Versailles first though, maybe I can wait after all

Its nice if you go to the right places.....a bit like London in that respect.

 

It is very expensive though

Full of Africans. You'd love it.

Agree with most so far.  There's some lovely parts & touristy stuff. It's also ridiculouly expensive, far too many ill mannered folk & easy to end up in a God forsaken ghetto.

 

There's much nicerer parts of France to go to.

Edited by no balls

Loved it

 

Super food

 

Got me i to red wine

Fantastic place, very stylish and the food's great.

my mate Quasimodo went into a bar near Notre Dam and asked for a whisky

 

The landlord said ''bells alright sir ?'' to which Quasi replied.....fuck off you nosy frog

I was last in Paris in 2005 and a beer cost me €13. Just had the one.

Cost me a fair fortune

 

Had ringside seats in the Moulin Rouge

 

 

Amazing view of the fanny

Where does Quasimodo keep his rabbit?

 

In a hutch, back of Notre Dame.

3 or 4 times once just travelling through. Falls into the 'wouldn't go back in a rush' catagory

Found it strangely underwhelming.

Stinks of piss. Not somewhere I would recommend.

 

Strasbourg and Aix En Provence miles better.

Loved it

There was no white dog shit though

Been working with them for over 20 years.  Strange fuckers those Frenchies.

Went 4 year ago, thought all the touristy stuff was good, some lovely building statues etc, rather expensive but somewhere worth visiting for a few days

Been a few times, once was when the egg chasing was on, watched the final under the Eiffel Tower it was good, been back more recently with the wife and agree its fooking expensive very expensive, and again it's already been said nice in places utterly shite in others,

There was a little bit of Lancashire in Paris on Sunday night.

The pavements are full of dogshit; I'd avoid it if I were you Jay. Aren't you more a Joburg kinda guy?

 

TIL NEXT TIME

 

CAPSLOCK COLIN

J'adore Paris.

 

I think folk often forget it's not a holiday resort.  It's a capital city.

 

Sure, there are rough parts, but then again which of the world's major capitals don't have them.

Stopped at the airport for Madrid away in Paris. A very adequate airport indeed.
