A diverse offering twixt the interesting, the unusual, and the amusing.
The video doesn't show for me today.
ReplyDeleteRe yesterday's post, I heartily agree with you on kindness Cro; it is the easiest thing to do and it's free.
I'm jealous of those mouthwatering rasberies!

I'm sorry you can't get the video; I wonder why not?
DeleteYes, it costs nothing to be pleasant, but some just can't face it.
The epitome of french charm and style with that attractive toughness. I had to Google to see if he is still alive. Alive and still kicking it seems.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the video
He was quite a heart-throb in his hay day. I think the video could have cut out the band and singers.
DeleteYes, the French ... by way of their language alone they charm your socks off in a tree (please note how artfully I knitted two sayings into one - just like how the French bamboozle one with sweet nothings).
ReplyDeleteWhich reminds me, a question I have been meaning to ask for a while: Do you consider yourself fully bilingual? Do you read books written in French?

I both speak and read in French, but I'm reluctant to write. I make too many mistakes. I occasionally find myself thinking in French too.
DeleteNo, too pretty and smooth for me. My French pin-up would have to be Gerard Depardieu.

ReplyDeleteIt's a good song, and he makes a good job of it.
DeleteHe was a beautiful looking man. I remember him from my youth. He was popular in the States also.
ReplyDeleteEven I can see that he was an attractive man; not always the case.
