Well done ... you picked one of the very few sunny days we've had in JER since Christmas!!

Spent the day wandering around St. Helier and was surprised to hear only 2 people speaking French. Although most of the street signs are written in French, everyone was speaking English with no noticable continental accents.
Virtually all road/street names are in French. However, we all speak normal English*



* Except for the 7% or the population who are Portugese/Madeiran and the 1% who are Polish
