That's amazing! That dog is in almost precisely the same pose I intend to paint my dog in, and her sofa is in the same tatty naff state and colour as mine. Incredible.
That's not a leopard!

It looks like a bakery down the road trying to do a promotion. I say trying, because they've failed to provide a menu to aid ordering from them (you get stuff delivered here rather than make an effort to go choose something yourself).Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Maybe somebody put it there for safekeepingyou know, so it doesn't blow away like.

It should be La since Boulangerie, Patisserie, etc. are feminine. Withdraw your custom asap!Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:They stuck "Le" in front of the name of their bakeryBruce Rioja wrote: So not French at all then?!

you've been a victim of "Baguetting"Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:I just found a french baguette tucked under the windscreen wiper
Baguetting can be defined as taking a picture of a scene where an object or body part has been substituted with a baguette, or lots of baguettes.

To be honest they've done well to spell Le correctly!

Bllx. That's just french. Why should we take a blind bit of notice about these frenchie-types who seem to thing inanimate objects have a gender ?Montreal Wanderer wrote:It should be La since Boulangerie, Patisserie, etc. are feminine.

She also has another autobiography out, what a fascinating life. I'll let you know on the book thread...

You can't judge a book by its cover. A transvestite has a gender. More complex with trans-sexual people of course.Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Which makes me wonder, would a transvestite be Le or La?... hmmmmm.bobo the clown wrote:Bllx. That's just french.

They're French, so presumably whichever the person in question is most offended by is the one they'll pick. If noone could persuade them a gender neutral word was a good idea when it came to tables and bridges, I doubt they'll be starting now!
