If…
- You don’t consider insects, dogs, cats, monkeys or guinea pigs to be food, but snails, frogs and horses are,
- You are proud of being able to eat more than 600 different types of cheeses,
- You are proud of the “baguette française” and if the baker near your home makes one which doesn’t suit your taste, you may buy your bread 10 km away,
- For you, kissing on both cheeks is normal between close acquaintances who are greeting or parting, or family members, even in public,
… Come and enjoy a French clubbing party in the heart of Glasgow’s West End on Thursday, May 15, 2008 (at 11:00pm at Top of Byres Road - £3) and bring a little Parisian style to one of the coolest pub of Glasgow.
