Oh lucky you! (I agree)
One thing which annoys me is the usage of the English abbreviation "Mr"
in the French writing (where it should be "M.")
It goes everywhere, credit card, cheque ("check" for the other side of
the pond) and every commercial or business letter.
It's unfair, as the ladies have the right values (Mlle or Mme, not some
english Miss or Mrs).
