I'm in Paris.

The first time i was in Paris about twenty people slowly Walked through a door, followed by my friends. When I tried to do the same a bouncer punched me in the face.

This time, within 24 hrs of arriving: an old man has killed a pigeon with a stick. And then been pysicqlly attacked by the poshest French man ever.

And I've just almost been arrested for drinking by a canal whilst about 300 people around me without any problem. How have you found France? Also any recommendations for things to do?

Definitely don't share a taxi with a seedy looking guy outside the airport.

a) The ferry captain knew where it was.
b) Cover up your 'British Bulldog' tattoos and don't wear the england football shirt next time. And they might think you're mocking them with that beret.

EDIT: Hmm, these drunk posts needs context. Later for that I guess. Today I watched a man walk around looking at Van Gogh paintings whilst wearing a "THANXS FOR THE BLOW JOB!!!!" tshirt.

Paris is a beautiful city utterly ruined by the Parisiens that inhabit it.

I got ("encouraged to leave" - Ed) the Louvre after sticking my elbows out of my T-shirt to make it look like I had no arms and them hopping over the railings for a quick pose next to the Venus de Milo, tripping silent alarms as I did so.
Hundreds of tourists have photos of me being ("convinced to step away from the priceless statue" - Ed), but my mate who had my camera, rubbishly, took none.

From Grim..'s recounting of the story, it was perfectly clear he was trying to give the impression he was 'armless.

Surely a picture exists somewhere on the net of this. Was it pre-digital?

Hmm, yeah, properly early days of digital, at least. 97, maybe?

actually, just bought this book, and falling in love with paris' metro system all over again..

as with most big cities, get out of the center quickly, and take a subway out somewhere, (not to far in case of paris, because the banlieu aren't fun).. not really fond of paris, or of france my self, without any specifc reason

When we were in Paris there was a clothes shop called 'Crazy Mountain'.

All the clothes were just dumped in one massive great pile on and around a huge table for people to rummage through. It was all rather tatty and it was in a shitty area. I imagine they were donated or the like, but i did enjoy seeing it.

Maybe it's just an amusing memory being exaggerated in my head, but I'm sure I can picture people with their whole upper body in the pile, with just legs sticking out.
