BradleyWiggins :   The RemainsOfTheDazed  II                  (cont. .. .   ..    from  Sunday, Nov 18

So, we were talking about the French .. and them taking both the credit and the blame for BW's bike accident  . ..
You see, it was being on those lovely (French) roads  . ... . when Bradley won the Tour de France ..
it lulled him into a false sense of security ..
because Wiggins had to come home, and it was probably all too much for him, biking on our rotten, rutted ways . .
. . .    .  Wiggy .. ! wallop  ..  hossy ..   y'know ..    mend our ways,  mend his ways   'n all  . .

And so the French will be bragging about the quality of their roads
but brooding about what happen to Brad  . .
For it's always a hotchpotch of referential pride and reverential guilt as far as the French are concerned  *

Put it this way :
There's an old song by  Peter Sarstedt   entitled      ? Where did you go to, my lovely      You may well know it.   . . .... 
Well, it's a  love-angst  piece, y'know . ...    where Peter sing about his  Lovely  in Paris, who does everything, knows everybody
etaletal  . . BUT the song tells us  (if I remember correctly )  how she keep a friend of Sacha Distel locked in a cupboard, 
without food and water, who is then put up for an extortionate ransom, an exchange for a famous Arab thoroughbred .. or something  
..or release on condition that Distel  never   ever   sings again ..     ! ?
     Or Sarstedt's song is about the English cyclist who pass from fabulous French roads to entropied  English dirt-tracks.

Yes.   Well, anyhoo, the point is :   The French        Referential pride         Reverential guilt.     etcetc       ?you get my drift!
It's a constant tension  within France :  Robespierre  v  Danton ;  Bardot  v  Depardieu ;  Aznavour  v  Distel  .   ..
. . .    Do you follow,  Ms. ?Ynnit   ?
