When you eat in a restaurant (which I can never spell !) All you get is absolutely engulfed in fag smoke. It appears that Parisiennes (is that their collective name ?) cannot get through a meal without a full pack of 200 fags. And it it those unfiltered jobbies as well. Paris in Springtime - don't make me laugh. What a dump ! I'd rather have been working. Norman. PS, Get the impression I was serioulsy not impressed ? I wasn't. PPS. Any Paris residents lurking/listening - don't take it personally, but Paris is not as 'romantic' as it is made out. Sorry.

And it is easier now to find Mac Donald's, chinese, greek meat than native one ! And weather is very bad since the beginning of the year. Hmmm at least you get the meat but without the Greeks :-) That MUST count for something... Phoebus :-) (Still Greek and -sadly- still 40 days away from home)

David Gilham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] asked: FWIW is there any further information on Johnathan Dents TCP/IP software for qdos,ie has he got PPP working yet? One for the FAQ list I suppose. I'm making progress but it'll be a while yet. Jon.
