The original premises are getting crowded, we need to expand.

Welcome all women, and well behaved animals.

Une translation boiled speak french to avoid the monitors.

Am I le seule person to notice that dans le quatrième image de Beetle avec les femmes qui watch le telly, there seems to be panel discussion at the Bluestocking bar?

Am I le seule person who pense that les deux femmes dans the big top picture look like elles sont very very amicales together? Gettin' jiggy sur la tutonniere?Wink

Je crois que nous parlons Franglais simplement pour le heck of it. Mais that said ..est-ce qu'il-y-a un Département de Francais a l'Université d'Aston??😰

FuzzyPuffling · 16/09/2024 21:14

Quand j'habite Brum, Aston est always called "Arsetown". C'est vrai.

FuzzyPuffling · 16/09/2024 21:16

Oh, le voiture pass le MOT et got un service aussi. Tout c'est bon.

FuzzyPuffling · 16/09/2024 21:19

I'm sorry Boily and Kev, that Franglais escaped you. I am only on Level One, so I feel for you. I'd feed those ugly "fail" certs to Colin immediately.

Je pense que la femme qui est dans le droit resemble à Helen Joyce.

C'est tres bon! Le MOT est toujours un temps de worry.

Non, je l'observe aussi. Getting jiggy c'est quoi le tutonniere is for, oui?

JulySheWillFlyAndGiveNoWarningToHerFlight · 16/09/2024 21:50

Mais tu looks tres cute quand tu est sad, Boily, in your nest with your blankie.

Je suis un peu peur de la Beetle pictured dans beaucoup des photos.

Mauvaise, mauvaise July! Ne judge pas people by how they choose to present themselves in the Bluestocking!

Nous can repel any uninvited, unwanted visitors to the Bluestocking.

Bien sur.

@Boiledbeetle When you've finished interviewing the Franglais tutors over at the Staunch Ally, let me know which one you want & I'll sign him up, OK? Don't worry, we'll get you through that exam!

(So nice of @MarieDeGournay to order a few tutonnieres for the Staunch Ally as well as the Bluestocking.)

Well... I think I'm going to need at least 3 lessons a day, and it's best to learn from multiple sources. So, all 3 please.

(Leery grin)

ifIwerenotanandroid · 17/09/2024 00:34

OK, the budget can run to that. You've got Jacques-Henri at 9am tomorrow, Georges at 10:30, bit of a break to recover & have a spot of lunch, & then Jean-Paul in the afternoon at 3. Suit you?

ifIwerenotanandroid · 17/09/2024 00:39

Tell Kevin I'm still trying to locate a Franglais-fluent seagull whisperer.

I can live with that!

Perhaps a Bonaparte's gull?

Erm, was thinking my...franglaise <cough> could stand some polishing.

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2024 00:43

Kevin can sort himself out! He's already doing better than me!

Nicholas says he has some free time this week, if you're interested. Oh, that was quick!

JulySheWillFlyAndGiveNoWarningToHerFlight · 17/09/2024 01:51

Franglais et cake! Excellent!

I see the person on the left has a sharp fork in her hand, perhaps to use as a weapon if Nicholas misinterprets his role.

Boiledbeetle · 17/09/2024 08:16

Just getting ready for my 9am franglais lesson. Can I order a quick full English breakfast and a cup of tea, should be ready by the time I've dried off.

Peut-etre que le Département de Francais gratte notre corpus like l'infame PhD student did?
