Not sure what Peter's saying. I'm still dependant on Monsieur Babelfish.

I'm practising my French. I live in a semi frog-infested land these days.

Paul McCartney's back catalogue?

not sure, it lacks that certain june ne sais quoi

That which to fook him?????

That's a bit too babylonic, even for me.

That is certainly no jejune comment.

I consulted babelnewt, Lardy's on-line translator for drunks

Mais oui.

a full chorus of 'em.

interesting stuff ... weirdly, I was listening to some of this last night on ABC National in a music documentary; the episode was on Progressive Rock.

It IS interesting. "In" and "out".

Not a great digestif though. ~ Or even as a prandial, it lacks a certain suavity.

Owwww! The legs, the legs! Imagine the legs on that!!

you've lost me. Do they taste like chicken?

More into the old Escargot round here. And Wings. Of the Paul Mc variety, not the flappy sort.

No, I just meant the quantity. Of frogs' legs. In a chorus of 'em. Since we were on a French theme.

You've lost me too. Somewhere between things that taste like rooster, classic racehorses and straightforward sanitary towels. Or something of that sort.

Are you living in Guernsey??

I thought so. Then I thought of the big-ass bullfrogs in the chorus. They'd be pretty meaty.

Nope. Somewhere you're (unfortunately) more likely to eat a racehorse. Perhaps I should add a country flag to my profile thingy.

You can have mine if you like. It was just a joke, and I got too lazy to change it.

Flag, that is

you just have ze French naturellement?

Naw, tis Canadia. The part that enjoys the tricolor, but still Canadia.

Ah! Kebeck!

Sounds good, well done! :o)

it's hardly a cricketing hotbed, but it's tres bon.

I think a Canadian was once seen near a Canadian national team.

But as for Quebec, I suppose you are doubly isolated - if that matters.

not really. s'different in a good way. Lack of coaching/playing/watching/talking about cricket is probably what pushed me back here. If it's not ice hockey, they don't really play it here. Canadian football. Not sure how it differs from American; perhaps I'll find out.

Ah well. Up with the larks I'll be. I'm sure at least 3 wickets will have fallen by then. Maybe. Perhaps.

You never know!

Good luck anyway Jill!

Ice hockey is excitingly fast, if you can follow the speed of the puck.

look at us engorging the post count for Jewn. Skully oughta be thrilled.

Thanks!

It's the literally bone crunching tackles that fascinate me. Nice for them to have an outlet for their rage on the ice, but it's a tad excessive.

Engorging. Hmmm.


It's part rutting ritual, isn't it. But at least there is a certain artistry in getting there, on ice, ~ unlike say American Football, which seems a mixture of thundermuscles and dinkiness.

(very) wrong word. Aye yi yi.

I was more implying that he/she/it (if indeed Fronch) may wonder "why er zees smolly Onglishmon sperking on Francais?"

She looks very Aryan.

Heh heh...its actually actress JUNE Allyson who, coincidentally, was constantly forced, throughout her career, to deny she was Jewish.

So you are now an English teacher in French Canadia?
