Default Paris versus London

Well... Coffee beat tea, Coke killed Pepsi, Today show beat Good Morning America, Hamburgers are better than Hot Dogs, Dogs are better animals than Cats and TV is better than movies?

Saturday is the best weekend day over Sunday and pens eked out the edge over pencils. and toilet paper should be mounted from the top over the front AND NOT from the top over the back. Speaking of toilets wicky is down one... lost to spam.gif

Electric razor lost heavily to shaving by blade.

Which is the better city?

London all the way.

Been to both cities. Pub crawls in London are awsome.

Paris has a great night life, but I don't like to ask a girl in french if she speaks english. You screw it up, head to another club, because your fun there is over.

I voted for London. Because RichUK is there and when I stop in town one of these days we are going to go get drunk on Guinsess, with a side of bacon. CHEERS MATE.

For the many times I've been to Paris over the years, it is let down by the fact that it is full of French people, despite the great art galleries they have.

London has great pubs and good beer. Easy decision really.

Paris used to be attractive and innocent. I viewing the pictures. Now she's just a tramp.

I agree with Rich. Paris is a beautiful city, but the French treat you like dirt.

[COLOR=red]Mmmm. Not necessarily so. I was expecting that too (french being pricks) but I'd heard from others that it wasn't so much true any more. This held up. I found the people to be helpful and friendly for the most part.... some were dicks but no more than anywhere else. In fact they were quite pleasant when we spoke french OR when we spoke english. Once while we were having a glass of wine and some olives in the Marias some old dude came over as he was walking by and leaned over and said, "
