Morning to all !

Congratulations @CandiceMarie. For the lottery not for the fall of the tooshbrush

Thank you for your kind words. When I talked about Christmas curse, I was not kidding, one way or another, each and every year I spend the time between Christmas and New Year in bed.

The night was not so bad, considering, and the foot is not worse than last night. It's difficult to move my toes but as it is swollen, nothing abnormal. I can walk, barefoot, but do it just for the essentials

Sorry to hear this @Manderley..hope you'll soon be better xx
The christmas curse continues..not only the broken toothbrush but this morning my daughter put ear drops in her eyes instead of eye drops x x

My daughter couldn't give much this year, so she gave us a scratchcard each, I won £2.00 and my son won £10.00 . So the lottery streak continues.

It seems that today has been an unofficial fast, no one has felt hungry yet. We will go overboard calorie wise in a bit as it's cheese board, crackers, crudities and dips for dinner followed by Christmas cake or a slice of giant Jaffa cake. I'm just off to make a blue cheese dip, all for me as no one else in the family will touch blue cheese in any form.

My mind is now boggling, along with @Ballerina's

Away 5 mins and what have I missed?

Is it wrong to eye up the 2/3rds empty bottle of cheap plonk after being good the whole day?

Nope its still christmas,fill your boots! X

Thank you, @CnadiceMarie, it really helps to practice every day. When I lived in England, people took me for an Irish woman because I am a natural red hair and that I lost my French accent after a few months. At the time there was a popular tv show with Antoine de Caunes and Jean Paul Gaultier where they were taking a very strong French accent and I always found it awful. If I remember correctly it was called "Euro Trash"


Since I went back home I still practice every day, reading, watching movies and trying to catch British TV because losing is fairly easy.

So coming here was a double blessing, for my waist and for my English

And you shouldn't hesitate to correct me when I make mistakes


@Julieathome what is plonk ????

Plonk, dear @manderley is the Euro Trash of the wine world!
Now, if only I could speak French as well as you speak English x

... Just looked this up and apparently the nearest translation is 'le pinard'

To be fair, French is a real difficult language with latin in all that complicated stuff in it. You should look to our conjugation, you couldn't imagine what a headache it can be, and it's only a part of the rules

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_conjugation

English is logical (except for the irregular verbs) and fluid, natural and beautiful. I learned while I was translating the lyrics of my favorite songs when I was a teen as I wanted to know exactly what I was singing about. On the other hand, I am dreadful in German, too difficult for me, too many rules

And I guess the translation for plonk could be "piquette"
