I'm pretty sure half the reason I was initially attracted to my wife was because of her English accent.

I am a big fan of the French way of eating snails when you get a plate with a number of indentations, each holding a decent size and tasty snail which has presumably been cooked in garlic and wine or the like.
Here they make a big thing of the snail season; in spring signs spring up outside every bar proclaiming "Ha caracois" - should you order one you get a plate piled high with thousands of little ones - equally tasty but they do have big dangling tails of poo which some might find a little off-putting. For me it's a filling and tasty dish, but after two or three hours of mechanically munching through a pile that never seems to diminish I feel that the novelty has worn off and it's long past time for a break. You know that saying about how you can have "too much of a good thing"? Turns out they don't have it here.
Alternatively you can get a smaller plate with six or eight bigger ones fried on it. I prefer the little ones but, every now and again the big fuckers can make a nice change I guess.
The other snail option I'm aware of is those sea snails that sometimes come with a seafood platter. My first experience of these was in Germany and henceforth I will always associate these disgusting monstrosities with that country, although to be fair I think I've had them in UK and Portugal too over the years - basically eating one is like chewing for ages on a kind of tough but flabby muscle with no real taste and a commendably strong refusal to go down without a fight. To be avoided at all costs.

I now work for a french company so I'm constantly exposed/subjected to their accents.
French is the clichéd sexy accent but I actually find that the majority of french ppl speaking English sound quite ridiculous.
As no doubt we sound speaking french.
They're lovely people though, can't fault them on that.
