French Friends
Bonjour, bonjour, je veux parler un peu a Lili et Bouclette. Merci beaucoup pour votre e-mail, vous etes si gentils. Je ne sais pas si c'est possible comprendre tout que vouz trouvez dans Le Blog ... mais vous etes bienvenu ici! bises et bises a vous.
Alors - "le weekend" (as they say in France)
Historic Mates!
We went to see a Gay History play last night at the Vic. It was good but we left at 1/2 time -- too tired and uncomfy to stay the full length. Needless to say we bumped into several chums there , like Keith and Ian - which was delightful.
Discourse Analysis
Slightly on the surreal side, I report this conversation with someone else we bumped into there:
Susan - Hi, you OK?
Ms X - Yeah fine, how are you?
Susan - Have you heard?
Ms X - What?
Susan - I've got cancer
Ms X - No! what a shock (etc...) What type?
Susan - Bowel, I'm on a big treatment programme now.
Ms X - (*miming a balaclava-hat shape round her face*) oh will you get one of these?
Susan - (*puzzled face*) what?
Ms X - or will you get a wig?
Susan - I probably wont need one, cos hair loss isn't a major side effect of my drugs
Ms X - oh you probably will
Susan - I think I'll find my seat now...
Today
We are going to see Dr Adab at 10.30 and he'll give me my drugs etc. then we are going to Manchester to have lunch with Birthday Girl Mandy.
If I've got the energy we will go to into town to Deisel so I can treat Brigid to a funky new handbag ... she is looking very gorgeous at the moment and she just NEEDS a new bag .... (I know this isn't very yoga -- but old habits die hard)

the webpage doesn't really convey the wonder of the range of bags they do at Deisel, and luckily not the prices either - or my mum would pass out with shock!

Aujourd'hui nous parlons français? Quelle coincidence! Demain je vais aller à Paris pour suivre une conférence. J'espère que les jours premiers de ton nouveau traitement vont bien...

Dear Suze, you are amazing and I want you to know how much I admire you and how much I am praying and hoping for your recovery.
Stay strong
All good wishes from
Fiona from the Lang. List

@ little mummy - don't worry - I wouldn't dream of scaring you with the details of how expensive our retail therapy was! I hope you get a nice bag with your fiver.
@ greg - hey - is there no limit to your talents! I hope you have time to do a bit more that suivre une conference while you are in Paris - and LOOK, you even managed to get an accent symobl in your post - all of which were risibly missing from mine...
@ Laura -- good point -- I must admit I averted my gaze whenever a wooly bonnet hove into view yesterday ...
@ keiron, dja mean matt from our class last year? was it good, and were there lots of lovely ladies for you to swing around?
@ fiona -- well, thank-you..
I can't quite see myself as amazing - it is more like Alan Bennett says:
"People talk about courage as it there were a choice, whereas one shows courage very often because there doesn’t seem to be much alternative."
I am always grateful for prayers, however. Bless you!
hey yeah it was matts from old class....he says he had a great time lots of booze lol
and as much as you are going to hate me for this, you look just like your sister :P
And in what way is it not desirable to look like ones beautiful sister?
well. some people dont like it, but thats not saying your not beautiful...your very good looking and should be happy
hmm - narrowly escaping a mauling to death by my sis, there K ..!
(and let's get this you're / your thing sorted out while I continue to educate you from home!) we're (we are) beautiful and you're (you are) a toe-rag.... Our sense of hunour will extend to forgiving you. Count YOUR lucky stars ...
im sorry, YOU'RE a very forgiving person. you should educate me from home. its better that way. im thinking of a gap year instead of university. i was thinking of English and Politics degree but now im not sure. i quite fancy travelling through America and Australia, 6 months in each.
i may be a toe rag but im a nice one :P talked my self outta it pretty well dont ya think??
