  1. Media is saying that DSK did try and claim diplomatic immunity...
  2. Apparently, iron age Frenchmen were brewing beer 2,500 years ago!! That will annoy the wine purists.
  3. June's edition is with the printers - I can't believe this was our 20th edition!!
  4. Why do stories always break just as we are finalising our news pages!!
  5. That said, Bruni-Sarko is still all over the news... this time because she is pregnant.... ALLEGEDLY!! (unconfirmed rumour)
  6. Sarko must be loving it - they're not talking about him for once and DSK looked set to be a serious challenger next year. Not any more!
  7. Should the IMF be getting rid of DSK? Or is it innocent until proven guilty? Must admit that it doesn't look good for him!!
  8. Look out for a bumper Christmas edition - now 32 pages!
  9. I understand why people are angry, but in France's defence, plenty of other European countries have been openly doing the same for a while.
  10. France is getting an absolutely battering in the European press!! Mostly about the Roma 'deportations'.
  11. Another national strike has been announced by the trade unions scheduled for September 23... great!
  12. ... I shan't translate!
  13. Sarkozy has apparently been 'Google bombed' by 1,000's of links to the phrase "trou du cul"... he generates guaranteed stories every month!
  14. September's paper is 100% distributed. This month we added points around Peyrat, Eymoutiers and Chateauneuf in Haute-Vienne
  15. September's paper is 80% distributed. Just a few areas of Creuse to cover before the 1st.
  16. It's been a slow month for news... I think all the journalists must go on holiday!
  17. September's Bugle goes to the printers on Monday... how do deadlines come around so fast!
  18. Did you know there was a French para group in the SAS in the 2nd World War? Interviewed the relative of a member this month - fascinating!
  19. The Bugle has lots of artisans listed, but not a single plumber... good news if you're a plumber and want to advertise...?
  20. Right, B minus, must try harder. The Bugle is now going to post more regular updates!
