Default Off to France for 6-months - au revoir! - update: im back!

Hi,

just wanted to say "au revoir" to all my mates on here before I leave for France this Friday. I'll be working there for 6-months as part of my degree.

Hope you all have a good summer, and i'll catch up with you in the New Year.

Cheers,

Agar

That should be "je voudraid un grande biere sil vous plait"

Summer weather there should be around 28-30 degrees C, bit of a change from Glasgow anyway

Well I though I better give you guys an update,

after spending around a month or so out in Grenoble I've had to return home due to personal reasons Its a real shame as I was enjoying being out there, and the work was really interesting. The French people were surprisingly very nice once they found out that I wasn't English - lol! Im kind of gutted to be back, but I guess it could be worse.

On the upside though, I've managed to secure another placement in Glasgow, so i'll be home from now on.

Cheers,

Agar

Missing Stevie isn't a valid excuse to return in my book! He hasn't changed, he's still as ugly!

Anyway, that'll be Pizza Hut's profits on the up since your arrival back in the U.K.

It came on remarkably well I thought - i'm by no means fluent now, but its amazing how quickly you pick things up on a day-to-day basis - even regional slang such as "adieu" became quite easy to identify and learn. Just a shame I couldn't have learnt more.

Nope. My Mrs came over to see me though, so I nailed her instead

On that topic though, I never knew the French birds were so stunning looking - all tanned and super slim
