A sheep, a werewolf and a walrus walk into a bar.

Sacré bleu! Qu'est-ce que c'est?! UN MOUTON?!!






We've done plenty of world geography Sheep games and a few Irish ones (and I think there might have been an American one too at some point) so some other country-specific Sheep games might be fun. If this goes well I might run them for some other countries too. 

Twenty French-themed Sheep questions (well, 18 questions but the last one is a three-parter).  Normal rules apply; you're trying to guess the most popular answer, Google is allowed and there are no wrong answers. 

Please send me your answers by PM (preferably an unnumbered list). No closing date in mind yet, will see how many entries we get. The more, the merrier of course!
