Nah, Youtube didn't put it in a cookie. I spent hours trying to locate it where it would be, but it's in a file in Temporary Internet Files. It'll go
when you delete your cookies, but I got tired having to log in again everywhere.
Have fun with your school friend!

Yes indeed, one day late, Happy New Year to all. My afternoon with my friend went well. I'm currently rewriting my FaceBook page for friends only. Now
that I know that I can do that, it's actually quite useful. I'm also trying to raise the standard of my French as we're about to visit my relatives in
Normandy. I'm getting lots of practice as they've all been friending me on FaceBook.

Good luck with your French!
I noticed how much mine has improved with some practice. It's great! Just knowing all those years of Mrs Stefanova in school weren't in vain...

I studied French at school for four years, but that was a long time ago. It probably formed some kind of base but I still feel like a beginner.

I had class for 6 years and got shocked how much I forgot from it after half a year of no French at all. Just watch something French every once in a
while. Amélie is a good start!
Finished knitting another jumper. Photos to come.

Nous sommes en France à ce moment.
All the major cities in Australia, except it's capital, are on the coast. It generally only reaches 50° in the interior. A few days ago it reached 44°
in Adelaide, which is rare enough. Heat waves in the high thirties, typically skirting 40°, lasting two weeks are a feature of Adelaide summers, but
not every year. And Adelaide summers are typically more extreme than the other Australian cities, except perhaps for Darwin. But Darwin is more
tropical and potentially more relentless as opposed to more extreme.

Last Friday I met with the Idiot Bastard in The Lord Moon Of The Mall in Westminster, London for a few a beers. Frank Zappa did not invent the English
language and I just want to say that Andrew is a nice man. We managed to get through six pints of a variety of fine English ales and barely scratched
the surface of a an animated conversation that will have to be continued anon. He's a scholar and a gentleman and I mean that in the best possible way
and that's allowing for his sense of humour which is at least as wicked as mine. BTW, that's a Ryko badge he's wearing on his specs. He did name
himself the Idiot Bastard and has to keep up appearances after all. The six pints barely put a dent in our ability to march off afterward through
Westminster and catch a tube.

Cosy!
Last night I was feeling a bit nostalgic and paged through an old Snorks comic. Turns out one of the mainstay adversaries from the comics is a
yellow shark. Really! He's called Herbert!

Howdy y'all,
Happy new year,all in good health I hope.2012 seemed to be full of bumps and bruises,from falls,slips and infections.(last one-thats me) I still don't
have all the feeling back in my right thumb and index finger.Makes writing,signing my name,very different everytime.Doing exerices to work back in the
nerves and ligiments that have been damaged by the operation an my arm.
So that's the Idiot Bastard.Cool,I assume he's the one with the same named Zappa web site,nez pa? I'm glad you guys got together and had a good
time.Wish I had been there too.So are you going to be in Normady during Zappanale Poly... and while your there are you and Bonny gonna meet up also?
If I ever get that close to the Mother of the Packard Goose we're on,I'd at least try to meet for coffee or a concert.Bad luck and lack of $$'s have
conspired to keep me away from Zappanale,for a few years now.Rotten luck!
I took spanish in grade school and only know the usual French saying's from the movies. Say la vee. Ha!

August in the northern hemisphere is the height of summer of course (well, June 21 is the longest day, but the best weather generally comes after).
I've just come back to the UK from Normandy and was only there for a week, so I guess I've missed Zappanale, not just by being in the wrong place??
I'll be back in OZ Sunday week.
It would be good to meet up with Bonny and it may well happen if my wife and I decide to return to live in the UK or even France. We may then at some
point decide to have a holiday in Holland. It's definitely on my list of places to visit. The next time we visit Europe, we aim to come in summer
instead of winter, so who knows, Zappanale may be on the cards in the near future.
