my "occasional outbursts of French nationalism" are rather tempered by criticism of the same elsewhere. I don't think I've ever seen Norway described as anything other than the most perfect place ever, oppressed by the callous EU bureaucracy (I know you did not say "callous" any more thna you said "evil" - it sounded like both, to my naive ears) but fighting valiantly onwards.
