Tho saying that, it depends on whether the french shipping lanes gave you clearance, if not you might be better off going to spain, and, it'll be hotter. Saying that, the south of france can be as hot as the north of spain all year round but much hotter than england.

grunt: About the US/British billion/trillion difference, that's not actually true anymore.
British English now uses the American definition. The BBC also use the American definition on their news, so if they can do it, it's official :-)

The Powerboat point that QuavaQuash has recently correctly stunned you with a great point. It is also true with a lilo. It would take longer on a lilo than a powerboat, but yes, you would reach England from North France quicker than from North France to Spain on a lilo.
And you thought a load of balancing animals was good huh.

There are now 4 categories for which books are prevented entry to Canada, and can be detained for indefinite periods of time at the border. When customs officials on duty at the border, or working with the Canadian government mail company, perceive that a book, magazine, or film, coming through the border could possibly be defined under one of the following four categories, the material is sent by a chain of command to the federal capital in Ottawa, where one individual has the final decision as to whether the book, magazine, or video in question will be allowed through the border.
The 4 categories are:
HATE LITERATURE: Any book that names a specific group as being responsible for something in history or in society that will promote animosity among other people towards that group. For example he said revisionists and neo-nazis say the Jews are responsible for promoting the Holocaust stories to obtain sympathy and money; this is therefore classified as Hate Literature.
OBSENITY: This is subject to arbitrary decisions by government officials. Most types of pornography from simple exposure of genitalia to violent and degrading sexual acts are seized at the border, and some are returned and some are not after decision are made by the one person in Ottawa.
SEDITION: If the material encourages people to break any criminal law, or human rights code of ethics, of Canada
TREASON: When material promotes the overthrow of the leaders of Canada. This is an outdated law as many people today publicly promote the overthrow of the government to their friends and co-workers.
