Tino, do you see those bloody flashing adverts on the right hand side?
You wait, the flashing fart button will get you.[/quote]
I don't seem to have one, dammit!
Looks like the girl found a bit of spark even without new red shoes (which I think are still a good idea).
Hey, smorgs! Good to see your spirits lifting.
Thanks for coming back to A2K and allowing us to help you get through in whatever way we can. That is truly the beauty of this place.
(How come nobody ever told me about the red shoe cure?)
spirits are lifted...just need to get some bandaid for the new red shoes - they are killing my heels!
MY GOD SMORGS!
I'm glad you've arrived....dlowan and me are fending off a horde of chinese students at the moment.
Here, take my keyboard, I'm going out for a cigar.
You should go to Britanny in order to smoke your cigar, LE.
Do you know why? (French joke)...
I wish I DID really smoke, Francis....I would certainly be dragging away right now.
Go on, what's the punchline?
"Parce que si tu prends le train à Lorient tu peux apprécier les six gares de là à Vannes". (Les cigars de la Havane)
There's six train-stations between Lorient and Vannes, Britanny.
Good one!
I shall put on my best French accent, and tell my brother that one when I phone him tonight.
He'll think that I have secretly been taking French lessons! (not).
I'm just about to start learning French (properly, this time), any good websites you could recommend, Francis? Apart from A2K that is, as I can just imagine Gus crashing into one of my lessons here, and causing some sort of mischief.
We have a provisional target date to move down to the borgogne, so I've got about a year to get myself reasonably fluent.
There's some nice web sites I've came across, LE. I'll check and get back to you..
Merci beaucoup, Francis.
I have already started talking in French to my dog, so that she will fit in and be able to hold conversations with the local dogs when we get there.
I've started with the basics, such as "asseyez vous!" (fetch), "doucement" (attack!) and "Excusez moi, vieux feve, mais ou est La Rue de St Jacques?" (just in case she gets lost).
In case she gets lost, it should be better she ask for la Rue des Morillons (Lost and found department).
The only French I know (cos I'm BRITISH)
is:
soixante neuf
and
voulez vous couchet avec moi
And I can't even spell them properly, still they seem to have got me through any French encounter!
Your ear's looking tres sexy today francis...
Hmm, I can see the spark in your eye again!
Did you just whisper that in my oreilles?
Smorgs, a word of advice.....NEVER flirt with a Frenchman, as you are totally out of your league.
The average French male spends nine months trying to get out, and the rest of his life trying to get back in.
Be warned.
(You're really-really moving to France, LordE? Gosh!)
