Just got back from two weeks in Britain and a couple of days in Paris. .
watched some TV in our various Brit hotel rooms. .  had no idea I needed to
get a license to do so?  I guess the hotels are covered under a blanket
license of some sort?  Strange stuff to say the least.

And did driving on the left side of the road really stem from the days of
jousting as I was told by a few Brits while there?

You can all tear this one apart as you see fit.  . but supposedly the
jousting thing transferred to horse back and buggy days to automobiles as
the jousters would hold their poles under their right arms facing off with
each other.

Just what I was told. . .

When in France the driving returned to "normal."
