I went to Gillingham once. It wasn't very nice.
We went for pre-match beers in Rochester, near the castle, which was lovely. This is the only time that I can remember that the group I was with chose to drink in a different town to the football match.
We lost 3-0.

Were you brought up in the Channel Islands then?
No. I was also taught that a sharp ridge formed by 2 glacial cwms was called an arrêté, however your mob have now ruled for the extinction of the circumflex....in the words of Tears For Fears, it's a mad world. |

Strassendorf sounds like a long road with the German army marching down it. A bit like the Champs-Élysées.

I have been to Gillingham more than once. The town centre is on par with Gorse Hill. Pint in the Clarendon or the Brittania  |

Why are there so many trees in Holland? . . . . . so the Germans can march in the shade. |

Fuck me, when was the last time the TEF had a thread with a Straßendorf, a cwm, an arrêté and an Élysées? And you lot want to leave 1000 years of Europe? For what? Guns and bacon? |

Someone expressed the problem of losing the circumflex very nicely with the expression: "Je vais me faire un petit jeûne / jeune." Do you get the (not so) subtle difference? |

My knowledge of French just about stretches to ordering an ice cream, and yet even I can see you've misquoted Camus.

I'm pretty sure of myself. Please enlighten me. |

“Everything I know about morality and the obligations of men, I owe it to football." That should do it. |

I'm pretty sure he said he learned it in the team or league he played in, in Algeria, rather than football itself. Paraphrased would have been better a term than misquoted. I'm trying to join in with the mass pedantry that seems to have broken out  |

I googled yours. It happened. So did mine. He might have said something twice in similar terms. Like the TEF.
Camus did bollocks.
