I’l fait beau aujourd’hui le 4 mars et c’est l’anniversaire de Grenouille (28). That’s enough French for today then… there are trois months before the trip. Consulting the Phrase book throws up some interesting things for conversation.. Je fais des economies pour m’acheter une moto.. for instance. Very amusing to let someone think Rider’s getting a motorbike. In Piggynap’s case .. je suis fauche.. might be appropriate (broke). Hopefully … ma voiture est bonne pour la casse.. won’t be needed (write-off). Oooh just found a familiar phrase .. Le cheval allait au trot; soudain il partit au galop…. How often has Rider had that experience! Anyway dinner out tonight for l’anniversaire…just as well after hard work in the garden for the first time since autumn.
