    Yeah, I can believe its better up North, they might be miserable up there but at least they arent wankers. But, whatever you think or have heard about France, know that it is a great place to live, and not for the obvious reasons, such as cafes and restaurants. I talk of the French people. They are simply a great bunch. Warm, friendly, open, sociable, and lively. Let me give you an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSzecX2CZ88[^] This is the French equivalent of Wimbledon. But they take it for the joke it is, and dont mind the guy clowning around, using the microphone, hitting the ball. No security guards are called, no one is angry, or scared. Take a look at his other vids, Saving Private Ryan is funny too. They are a cool, laid back bunch the French.

    Not miserable either (guess where I'm from), this is just stereotyping by southerners who assume it is. The main problems are the weather is and the fact economy is shot to hell (and the problems that brings).

    So they are like anti-geeks, sounds like hell. Secretly, I like the French, but being English I can't say so. Except on a public forum such as this :-).

        For the same reason they need British approval. i.e. null. But they've got it anyway.

          Yeah, the northern thing is a characterisation. Actually northerners are friendly too. If it wasnt for the weather I would live there happily. Watch the vid if you get a chance, you will understand just how the French are.

                                Doesn't sound like you updated it correctly, does it say Version 1.5 in the About tab? and in chrome://extensions/ When i say update manually, go to the extensions tab, developer mode, and click the 'Update Extensions Now' button.
