Argh! Don't get me started! My wife being French, we just received home

No way. They need less excitement. Not an excuse.
I'll keep hold of it as if I were at an Edinburgh party. :)

LOL - just make sure your fellow countrypersons don't "up the ante" 
then.  The US is in the lead at the moment, and the "winner" is the
