      LOL! Ok, lemme clear this up for y'all: English: Your women look fine. You just need to clearly differentiate your men from them to avoid confusing other countries. French: The English women look fine. Stop staring at men like that, it's disturbing. Both: For pity’s sake! Speak proper English like the rest of us Americans... :rolleyes:

            Megan, just for you I will will reply to Karl. I wasn't going to bother as it's so difficult to pick apart what it is he's trying to say and it might be greedy as I've already won one award already :) "The folly of man is that he dreams of what he can never achieve rather than dream of what he can."
