Et Ć  vous aussi!!

Actually, that makes me think - given the conversation about learning a language, perhaps there should be a category for posts in French?

Cā€™est une bonne idĆ©e, comment lā€™appeler?

Iā€™m guessing we will learn a lot about our language skills!

On peut la nommer simplement ā€œEn FranƧaisā€

ok pourquoi pas!

Itā€™s going to be a glorious weekendā€¦

Iā€™ve spent 3 hours at the hairdresser this afternoonā€¦ my head is ringing with all that wonderful French tittle-tattleā€¦ and OH is so chuffed with my new-lookā€¦ that he is escorting me to the Bal tomorrow night. (OK, so weā€™ll end up behind the bar, but it will still be fun).

Well it canā€™t be worse than here can it. Totally fed up with lack of sun. You are missing nothing here today. From the look of the sky Limoux will be underwater by the end of the day!

Have fun en Espagne!

Beautiful sunny morning, SE56, breakfast on the terrace, been the same for a few days, long may it last :grinning:

Getting a gite ready today, tomorrow ā€¦:beer::beer:

Thanks James, the same to you and yours.

I managed to work in the garden yesterday despite the cold start, so today I will be relaxing in the sunshine. Tomorrow visiting a brocante and looking for bargains ā€¦ :grin:

I visit brocantes with my hands tied behind my back. My trouble is I see things that I really wantā€¦ and OH saysā€¦ weā€™ve got that up in the loft :thinking: ā€¦and more than often, we have :laughing:

I have been having a massive clear out during the bad weather (still not finished, but it can wait) and will be attending a Brocante later in the year as a seller. Have done this with friends for a few years now, we have stands next to each other and share lunch, aperos, wine etc. Hard work (especially setting off at 5h30) but can be fun and have had some ā€˜interestingā€™ encounters.
The money I make (sometimes very little) goes into a pot for lunch out when enough has accumulated.
Found a bargain recently, a lovely 3 seater metal bench for the garden, 10 euros including the cushion, looks great :grin:

Since reading a book about Feng Shui I have tried to put it into practise. We all hang onto things thatā€™ might be usefulā€™, might be able to fit into with a diet :wink:
These things get shoved to the back of a cupboard or stored in a carton and are still there every clear out. I now consider that if they havenā€™t been used in the last 3 or 4 years then its unlikely they will ever be used.
When I shuffle off this mortal coil, as Del Boy says, I donā€™t want someone to have to clear through all my ā€˜stockā€™.
Having said that I would love to have a poke around in your loft Stella :rofl:

An absolute addict, I have to be very selective now, or we will need to move, some incredible bargains to be had, my barograph is the latest, I will have a lot of pleasure out of that for 60 ā€˜bing bangsā€™ :grinning:

It seems ā€œEn Franglaisā€ would have had more traction.

Was my French really that bad? :slight_smile: (no need to reply, I know the answer).
