Weekend-French:fin de semaine!

Image
Yep - it's weekend time again...! The French have it as well, and they call it "Fin de Semaine" - but also "Weekend" ! (and it's " LE " - so it's something good that's masculine!) The French also have something which Tourists love! ROUNDABOUTS.......! LOTS AND LOTS OF THEM.....! all done up differently! Absolute death traps for Brits, who tend to take them in the wrong direction......! So - this weekend - watch out for "roundybouts" if you're out and about....or aroundybout!

What would Maggie say....?

I haven't been in the UK for over 17 years, and I haven't lived there, on a permanent basis, for over 40, but I recall some years ago hearing of a certain Mrs M. Thatcher's outburst against what she called (I think) "Yuppies", who soiled the outsides of pubs and bars and wine bars with their presence, laying a trail of cigarette butts, uneaten bits of baguettes or crisps - were loud, impolite and generally gave the country a bad name - according to her!
