Dog shit everywhere! We've just come back from a holiday in France and I feel traumatised by the amount of dog shit. There was even some in the supermarket car park on the crossing, a great big pile of it, yuk.

    What about general litter, was that as bad or is France clean in this regard?

    I'll disagree there and agree with the litter, I'll disagree with turquoiseblue's claim.

    According to a Polish girl I used to work with, Poles hate everyone. She was pretty racist too and didn't like dealing with black or Asian people.

    It doesn't smell but they tolerate graffiti which makes it look scruffy. Lots of homeless people as well who sleep in the Metro stations.

    I work in central London, the worse place for dog shite is Pimlico. Nobody scoops the poop. Disgusting.

    Where we live most clear up after their dogs. In France it would seem that no one bothers. Some places do have bins and a poo bag dispenser so the authorities are trying. Still a long way to go though.

    The French rarely use proper toilets. Public facilities are often of the hole in the ground type.

    Go to southern Germany as an antidote - it is spotless.

    Where in France did you "holiday" ?
    A sweeping statement for a large country!

    Also tell them that traffic lights serve a purpose, they're not just there to change colour.

    As for litter, I've only been to Le Havre a couple of times but it was a shithole.

    No different to England then!

    Every trip out is like walking through a minefield.

    As has been my road for the last month where some ignorant horse rider failed to clean up Neddy's mess >:(

    I see a guy on the train drop a Mcdonalds bag bold as brass, just chucked it onto the floor, people don't care, its not a Paris only issue.
