And another 10 out of 10. Students of French in the 90s will remember La Tricolore textbooks, where seemingly every other sentence made reference to the vibrancy and richness of things happening in La Rochelle, France. I was absolutely convinced growing up that La Rochelle was second only to Paris in terms of size and importance.

Of course, having just looked it up, it would appear that's a pretty ordinary "city" with a population of around 75,000. Which leads me to wonder if students in France eagerly open their cahiers des textes  to read about all the goings-on in, say, East Kilbride.
