My first seminar. They are so terrifying, but it seems like a good group, and it was interesting - though I ALWAYS make myself seem very stupid for the first few weeks. Hope I'll hit my stride soon.

My little sister has just got herself a little part time job, after months of rejection. I had better clarify that my little sister is in fact 44 years old in a couple of weeks, but she has always been my little sister and always will be.

It actually went really really well (I think...) until I was asked to describe my family...I launched into a spiel, until I then proudly declared "Mon pere est le noir cheval" (my dad is a black horse) insteadof my dad has black hair! My poor French teacher nearly died trying to stop herself giggling, and burst into fits of laughter as soon as the tape was turned off! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

classic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I vaguely remember someone translating ' il était emporté par son colere' as 'he was carried away by his collar' instead of 'by his anger' - was that in real life or was it in a book?? anyway may amuse you.

Six good lessons have made me happy today.

My husband claims that at school he translated "Il etait en retard" as "He was retarded"!

It's all too easy to get the wrong word when you're thinking on your feet, Fran*Piano. At least you gave your teacher a good laugh! Hope you managed a good mark too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I've not actually seen the whole of the film (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ninja.gif) but it was our youth drama group's junior production. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

It was yesterday. We had previously contacted a seller on ebay and did a deal to swap dining tables for a cash consideration. Our Victorian wind out table was duly collected by the courier and he delivered a beautiful sheraton revival pull out table which has 3 leaves, and can seat up to 14 people.
I'm now scouring outlets for a couple more Victorian balloon back dining chairs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Funnily enough, we have been watching some Lovejoy DVDs recently! And I have been known to buy and sell a few items.........

An excellent final rehearsal with DawnF for our recital on Sunday. If we play as well (or better) on Sunday we will both be well satisfied.
