IMO one of the main reasons there are so few Germano-Romance conlangs is that most of the Germanic languages already have their vocabularies shot through with Romance material (Icelandic and Yiddish being the main exceptions and English being the extreme example). The conlang that comes closest to Anglo-Romance is in fact Jespersen's IAL Novial, which was/is largely a Romance vocabulary grafted on an English grammar (not a bad idea for a pan-European IAL IMHO). -- /BP 8^)> -- Benct Philip Jonsson -- melroch at melroch dot se Solitudinem faciunt pacem appellant!
