Yes, we learnt French in 3G in 1966. We were taught by Father Cosgriff. He was a nice chap but a lot of the students gave him a hard time. Having been a teacher for many years and struggling with some classes, I can relate to that. Father Cosgriff's main teaching subject was English, and I suspect that he was as new to French as we students were. Never mind, he did his best. I still remember quite a bit of French. "Le professeur est dans la salle de classe." That's a phrase that always pops into my head when I think of the French language. It's not a very useful phrase if you suddenly find yourself in France.



Here are some much more useful phrases:

Je ne parle pas vraiment français.
J'ai un ami que j'appelle Wayne.
Combien coûte ce champagne fantaisie?
Ok, je vais boire de l'eau.
Avez-vous un Cleanskin?
Son nom de famille est Kerr.

The French actually have two words for 'wanker'. One is for males, branleur, and one is for females, branleuse. See, you learn something every time you visit Richard's Bass Bag.*

Au revoir.
Passe une bonne journée.
