Subject: RE: BS: What have the French ever done for us ?
Loads of Shanties. (even if they can't spell the word)
Snails in Fast Food restaurants.
The glorious British maritime tradition.
Soixant Neuf Du Pape

NOT the Cajun accordian, that came from German influence, later modified with Italian reeds.
And I believe the guillotine was first invented en Anglaterre?
