LR - The fighting Irish (was: Grandpa)

[Tim Cantley]

Ahhh..but during the Scottish Wars of Independence, it was the Scots that were allied with the French.  William Wallace was even supposed to have gone to France with a small band of his followers to fight for the King of France against the English that were trying to expand their holdings in France.

There has always been an affinity between the Irish and the French - we are united by our dislike of the English.
