For people with Breton connections I'd prefer Jack Kerouac.

Does anyone know what the "44 = BZH" slogan means? BZH I understand but what's the "44"?

It might be referring to the Department Loire-Atlantique, capital Nantes, which historically was part of Britanny and might be a political jesture.

The Department numbers appear as part of car registration numbers. Beware of those with 75 in them (Paris drivers) icon_smile

44 is the departmental number for the Loire Atlantique which is part of the Breton nation but has been hacked off by the French state and added to another region called Pay de la Loire.

If you can imagin North Cornwall being cut off and added to Devonshire you'll get the idea.

Where there is a will there is a way.

Brittany have created a 'national' side for Football and are playing Congo on the 20th of May: http://www.bret...ootball.org/
