I had a date yesterday. I was a bit the worse for wear after Friday night… when I just felt like a drink ( after not drinking anything for about 10 days – well except for a dodgy white wine at the O2 ) … anyway, because I eat so little, alcohol definitely affects me more.. so less wine gets me more pi***ed.
Anyway… she was French. I do actually like the French. I can speak it reasonably well.. enough to get by, in any case.
We went to The Shard – same formula – at least the view is good, even if the date isn’t! But actually it was a really fun day. Quite early on I said ( after saying a word that I knew was the same in Frenchie language ) ‘ do the French have a word for ****** ? ‘ As she didn’t seem to get the joke, I kept doing it, purely to make myself laugh.
Like ‘ nice to have our first rendezvous in the Shard, isn’t it ? Do the french have a word for ‘ rendezvous’ ? ‘
It’s the same word, she said.
Oh ok, I said.
After a bit … I should have bought you flowers. A bouquet.
Do the french have a word for ‘ bouquet’ ?
It’s the same word, she said.
Oh ok, I said.
And blah blah blah is an entrepreneur.
Do the french have a word for ‘ entrepreneur ‘ ?
It’s the same word, she said.
Oh ok, I said.
And ..
You should keep the ticket as a souvenir of our date.
Do the french have a word for ‘ souvenir’ ?
It’s the same word, she said.
Oh ok, I said.
Obviously I dropped in ‘ I ope you find app – e – nis ‘ quite regularly. 🤦♂️😂
The daft things I do, just to entertain myself!
