Is their motto really:
To the water! This is the hour!
or:
A l'eau! C'est l'heure! ;D

How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?
We don't know...they've never tried

Is their motto really: To the water! This is the hour! or: A l'eau! C'est l'heure! ;D One of my dad's favourites, that! I think a better translation might be: "To the water: it is time!" Reminds me of a joke for French kids. How do you spell "I'm starving" with two letters? The answer is, in French, "G a" or "G grand, A petit" which is pronounced the same as "J'ai grand appetite"! Sweet ;D |

An elderly English gentleman of 83 arrived in Paris by plane.
At the French immigration desk, the man took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on bag.
"You have been to France before, monsieur?" the Immigration officer asked, sarcastically.
The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.
"Then you should know well enough to have your passport ready."
The English gentleman says, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."
"Impossible. All Englishmen have to show their passports on arrival in France !"
The elderly gentleman gave the French Immigration Officer a long hard look.
Then he quietly explained.
"Well, the last time I was here, I came ashore on Juno Beach on D- Day in June 1944, and I couldn't find any f**k**g Frenchmen to show it to"
==============================================================
Why does the French flag have Velcro on it?
So the blue and red sections are easily removed during a time of war.
==============================================================
I went out for a meal last night. Ordered everything in French. I surprised everyone. It was a Chinese Restaurant

In last week's Non League Today, 'Sid' the Scout's articlewas talking about a scouting trip to France, anyway, his grandad went with him and couldn't find his pasport at the immigration desk.........
"your first visit to France, Monsieur?"
"!Listen sonney, the last time I was here, I didn't need to show my passport!"
"Impossible, all Englishmen have to show their passport upon arrival in France."
"Well the last time I came to France was on D-Day in 1944 and couldn't find a damn Frenchman to show it to!"

A compartment in a train heading for London is occupied by an Englishman, a Frenchman, a "dolly bird" and a"plain jane". A few polite words are exchanged and all remains quiet until the train enters a tunnel.
The lights suddenly go out. There is a bit of a kerfuffle followed by the loud sound of a slap. As the lights come back on, the passengers stare at each other.
The frenchman is totally bemused. His face is stinging.
The "plain jane" looks at the mark on the his face and thinks "That frenchman's tried it on with that girl and she's slapped him. Good for you, sister."
The "dolly bird" thinks " Oh my God! He must have tried to feel me up and got her instead!"
The Englishman thinks " I hope we go into another tunnel soon so that i can slap that froggy again!"
