Sinister: Continental post and British weather

[elenita99]

Hello fellow listees,

My little brother (well he's almost 18) has arrived this week from France to 
spend three weeks in London and improves his English. During his first night 
he came into my room at some indecent hour and woke me up. I'll translate 
the conversation for you, in case you are not fluent in French :)
Elena: "grmglmgrmwhat?"
Lil'bro: "Elena...I'm cold!"
E: "grlmlm...what? ...but I gave you a duvet!"
L: "yeah but it's fucking freezing in here!"
So as I am not that cruel I had to get up and gave him another duvet in 
order to get back to sleep in peace. All this to illustrate my point: this 
weather is properly indecent for July.

Well, to be totally honest I'll have to admit that the pub idea was coming 
from an English person (which sounds quite logical if you think about how 
english is a pub). But thanks anyway, I feel full of continental elan now. 
And Mr Casarotto was right, come on Saturday, "it'll be fucking ace".

Which first made me laugh and then I felt sorry for the poor boy: he's about 
to become a generic expression for "being drunk" and he doesn't even know it 
yet. I didn't felt sorry for Martin though, but maybe I will on Saturday if 
we leave him lying on the grass of the Hill almost unconscious. I am not 
taking any responsabilities for that, and it is a statement.

Have a good week all
Love
Elena
PS: I didn't mention Pink Floyd, na na naaaaa
