This weekend ……action!

[Bouba]

Tell the wife the engine has stopped....

There is a reason for the slow pace beside the energy crisis
The port we just left has a 6pm curfew for the free visitor mooring….but in our destination the wind doesn’t die down until 8pm

 

[Bouba]

Just out of interest we are doing 4.7 knots @ 1.7 litres per hour

Que?

Un lapin a mangé mon vélo

I haven't done any French for the best part of 60 years so I'm rustier than a very rusty thing.

Ask Hackett to translate……mon Ami!

May I suggest you start to reacquaint yourself perhaps starting with something like:

La plume de ma tante est sur le bureau, it's a little advanced for Bouba so don't ask him.

 

[Bouba]

Try this…..
Hackett a conduit sa Porsche aujourd'hui. Mais personne ne regardait, alors il est rentré chez lui.

The Home Service on a big brown valve radio, surely?

It’s a French boat!

But don't you feel a patriotic urge to make your boat some corner of a foreign field ria that is for ever England?

He has an actual field

Ifigenia was a nice little 5 ton Hillyard

Well correctly it’s my wifes ……I keep hinting that she should sell it but this is greeted with scorn.

Oi, I'll have you know I speak French like a native. Unfortunately it's like a native of a country where hardy anyone speaks French and those few that do are rubbish at it Although I somehow managed to fluke an O level in French I've honestly never needed to use in my entire life. But geometry, trigonometry, calculus, vector maths - those things were well worth learning.

Those are Greek and Latin, not French.
