I have to say I was not that impressed with Lady Gaga's tribute to Bowie at the Grammys. The whole thing seemed rushed and like she was trying to fit too many songs into too short  space of time. I also wish she had just sung Bowie's songs as Lady Gaga, rather than trying to impersonate him...

Ha ha, very funny!!!

You've got it!

From my experience the service in the UK is generally always better than in continental Europe. And the selection of ready made meals, while we can argue about the health value of it, is something I love about the UK.

I will be going to see "Through the Looking Glass" when it is out, but it will be so strange to hear his voice. I am also unsure of how I feel seeing this great actor for the last time as a caterpillar...

I concur with what has been said. Two summers ago we went on a long holiday touring the south of France in an RV we rented from this website and drove that exact route. We flew to Lyon, picked up the RV and then drove via the north of Lyon to Clermont-Ferrand. Of course in an RV we were automatically inclined to avoid city centres as much as possible, but I had also heard a lot about making sure to avoid the rush hour during my research. From Clermont we drove on to Bordeaux and then down to the southern coast, over Toulouse, Montpellier, Marseilles, Nice and finally back up to Lyon. Of course we took our time and made plenty of stops. It was a truly memorable trip and I can only recommend it.

It is words like this that I forget so easily if I don't speak French enough. It is especially annoying, as they really do make a huge difference in how fluently you can speak.

You gouda prevented all of this.

I am so glad I found this list. I can't wait to get stuck in. This is a great way to keep your French in good shape.

I read "The Stranger" by Albert Camus a few years ago. It was still a very good read and the translation was good, but I did wonder what I was missing by not reading it in French. Unfortunately my French is just not good enough.
