Did you try it like in the movie, on a slice of bread dipped in your morning coffee ? This must be quite an experience ! dizzy

Much as I love smelly cheese of any sort I don't dip it in my coffee! Unfortunately Maroille is VERY expensive here when available, which is rare. That reminds me I must watch the movie again as I have it on DVD. I do like the bit where he stands up out of his wheelchair to shake hands wounded

Ha, great, you know that film?
You gave me THE idea for this late evening - I'll rent that film.
Seen it, but it's worth seeing again.
Also the second one by Dany Boon, about the custom men.

Hi Olham,

If you have liked this movie, Italians have made a remake of it called "Benvenuti al Sud" ... I haven't seen it, so I don't know if it is as fun as the original ...
