PQ - I think it was mentioned to you before that using "pourri" without the "pot" conveys a very different impression to a French speaker from what you probably intended.
In this context, so far from making a play on words of doubtful amusingness, it actually verges on the inflammatory.

That said, I do mean to go sometime. I can't wait to use the new St Pancras Eurostar terminal, which sounds very impressive, and it would be interesting to compare French and British museums on similar sensitive themes.
