Best places I know...

Brussels is boring, states an OECD report.
Well, maybe. Though you can wine and dine as nowhere else and taste more beers than you can dream about.
Even the same OECD report states that the best dining city is Paris – it’s clear that these officials don’t have to pay the bill themselves...
But more about the French in
this report:

The French spend more time sleeping than anyone else in OECD countries. They also devote more time to eating than anyone else and nearly double that of Americans, Canadians or Mexicans. The Japanese sleep nearly an hour less every night than the French and also spend longer at work and commuting than they do indulging in leisure activities.

I happen to know some French people in Dublin.
Nice folks and so very … French.
Always in for a good night at Lillie’s Bordello.

Et maintenant, des nouvelles concernant la région bordelaise et le récolte de 2008.
It’s the Live-ex index of fine wine prices which is tracking the price of French finest. Take a look to the price of a crate of 2008 Lafite.

Now this is called a parabolic price rise.
