don't you just use the .co.uk rather than .fr url?

Are you using your own computer or a French one?

If it is a French one, it might have the default language code set in the web browser to French (I know, how very French of them!).

You can change this in IE8 by going to the Tools->Internet Option menu and looking for the Languages button on the General tab. Move the languages around until you have proper English at the top.

If you are using another browser, I'll assume you know what you're doing.
