Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Anyway. Anyone else remember M et Mme Bertillion from French at school. M Bertillion est un douanier et il travail a Orly.
That was my entire knowledge of French. That and a dodgy fake newspaper called la francois aujourd hui.
Nostalgias not what it used to be.

alan, we didn't have him , we had xavier going into shops and buying stuff. actually , my first crush was on the french teacher at primary school. i must have been about 8 or 9 and she looked like purdey from the new avengers, but with a big nose and tons of make-up. it was a very strange feeling , sitting there in short pants and a hard on.....

Oh no. Back to the scaffolding again eh Choc?

YOUR FRENCH TEACHER HAD SHORT PANTS AND A HARD ON? Shit, I thought I went to a dodgy school.
My French teacher was a German woman (explains a lot) called Ursula Smart, who was the wife of TV sports presenter Mike Smart, and as a spooky co-incidence, my English Teacher, Mrs Gration was the wife of TV sports presenter Harry Gration!!
Alan

Mmm je l'aimerais bien

Don't tell me they had a son called Confla.
And a daugther Emmy?

LOL

Harry Gration? Shut That Door, Everard!

Couldn't resist. Soft Southerners probably mistake him for the up t' North presenter.

Where I come from Lad, Tetley's is BEER not Tea!

Nam

Nam,
Harry is that presenter. You appear to be thinking about Larry Grayson.
Or am I missing some kind of irony here?
Alan
