Today is a special one for our Froggie chums - their National Day Le quatorze juillet, or Bastille Day, when the French celebrate all things garlicky, cheesy and wine-y.
Or something.
To mark this auspicious day, I'm feeling like a bit of a bop, so here are a couple of our own upbeat French favourites at Dolores Delargo Towers...
First up, the Gallic answer to Miss Minoque - Dannii, not Kylie - it's the very lovely, and very gay-friendly Mademoiselle Ysa Ferrer. She's a Pom-Pom Girl!
Continuing the particularly French way with starting names with a "Y", here's Yelle and the marvellous A Cause Des Garcons:
And finally, here introduced by Lady Penelope, is the kitsch-tastic Sheila and Black Devotion with a number that probably I would normally feature in my "Thank Disco It's Friday" slot...
Vive la folie!

there's a chain of restaurants here, "salut" (french style cuisine, whatever) & one of their logos is a frog in a beret. this seems odd to me.
