    think I might have to brush up on my French...

    Wasn't sure whether to post this here or under the gaelic languages forum...

    http://normandie-kilts.easyforum.fr/

    Might interest a few of our members... Now of course being British, and in the time honored traditions of the empire, I'd have to expect them all to learn english...

    I see our good friend Ancienne Alliance is a member. Cant be a bad site if Robert is on there. At least he will keep them on the enlightened and correct path.
    Kind regards- Simon

    Of course Brittany is one of the Celtic nations, but it has absolutely nothing to do with Normadie (except that they're neighbours!).

    The site appears to come up with Ebay connections to tartan tat websites though - best ignored though I guess they do help pay for the site.

    I was amazed to find that I could actually understand some of the headings and follow the threads, and it is many a year since I used French.

    I found Madam Ancienne Alliance on there too.
