France president Nicolas Sarkozy has apologised to the Republic of Ireland for Thierry Henry's blatant handball that saw the Republic of Ireland draw 1 - 1 and bow out in their quest for qualification to the 2010 World Cup.
Following talks with the Irish prime minister at a European Union summit in Brussels, Sarkozy told reporters: "I told Brian Cowen how sorry I was for them."
Looking forward to the Irish vs France rugby match - cannot see any prisoners being taken!
Renting property in France is big business. About half the population rents property although Sarkozy is trying to sell the benefits of home ownership (a la Thatcher) with tax incentives.
Most towns will have a large selection of "Locations" agencies where you can find property to rent. Rentals tend to be cheaper in France than the UK - but of course it does depend on location, location, location. Do a search on google.fr for a "location" plus town or village name to find rental property / agencies. Lets are from periods of 6 months.
Holiday lets will be more expensive especially in the high season (July and August) when France goes on holiday. Outside the high season prices will be more competitively priced. Property will be available on the coasts and rural locations - from apartment to chateaux! Something for every budget.

Beaujolais Nouveau is released on the third Thursday of November. Beaujolais nouveau is the first wine of the season. It's vinified quickly and gently, turning out a light-bodied, unserious, very fruity red wine from the gamay grape.
Served at about 55 degrees, cooler than usual for a red wine, it goes well with turkey.
The wine takes its name from the historical Beaujolais province and wine producing region. It is located north of Lyon, and covers parts of the north of the Rhône département (Rhône-Alpes) and parts of the south of the Saône-et-Loire département (Burgundy).
Traditionally, the bistros of Paris use every form of transport from motorcycles to light aircraft to be the first to bring up the new wine from the Beaujolais region of southeast France.

The rule banning women from dressing like men – namely by wearing trousers - was first introduced in 1800 by Paris' police chief and has survived repeated attempts to repeal it.
The 1800 rule stipulated than any Parisienne wishing to dress like a man "must present herself to Paris' main police station to obtain authorisation".
In 1892 it was slightly relaxed thanks to an amendment which said trousers were permitted "as long as the woman is holding the reins of a horse".
Then in 1909, the decree was further watered down when an extra clause was added to allow women in trousers on condition they were "on a bicycle or holding it by the handlebars".
In 1969, amid a global movement towards gender equality, the Paris council asked the city's police chief to bin the decree. His response was: "It is unwise to change texts which foreseen or unforeseen variations in fashion can return to the fore."
The latest attempt to remove the outmoded rule was in 2003, when a Right-wing MP from President Nicolas Sarkozy's UMP party wrote to the minister in charge of gender equality. The minister's response was: "Disuse is sometimes more efficient than (state) intervention in adapting the law to changing morays."
As Evelyne Pisier, a law professor whose book Le Droit des Femmes (The Rights of Women) unearthed the curious decree points out, given that trousers are compulsory for Parisian policewoman, they are all breaking the law.
O common on - this is just too silly; is this a Monty Python sketch?
