Title: bad habits
Post by: ACE on September 22, 2006, 20:17:41
I have taken up a few french habits since my holiday, gauloises and expresso for brekkie, bread, cheese and red wine for nammit.  (nammit is elevenses on the south island), Have a wee nap in the afternoon then another gauloise and coffee with a drop of brandy.

The evening meal of grenouille usually has me hopping about ;D

Some of those old french boys live to a ripe old age so it must be good for me.

Be careful ACE the old boys probably didn't drink the red wine and probably avoided liver sclerosis, :o ;D

How do you pronounce gauloises ?  Not that I approve, tut tut  :P, its only my favourite spy smokes them but I always kind've skipped over the name as I don't know how to say it. (Even in my head )

Thanks Soph!   ;D I'll have to re read those books now hahaha!

When I was working in a bar in Greece the owner, who was prone to the odd practical joke, asked me to go to the shop for a packet of camels. I really thought he was having me on!  ;D
