So do I. Remind me which date it was ?
CG> Nice to meet you ! Great look Ian !
Oooh-err. I am not exactly your Tom Cruise look alike but I would hope that my personality would be more important !
IH>> Your english is superb.
CG> Thanks a lot, it's very kind of you, I try to do my best !
I hope that my French will be as good one day.
CG> Tres bien ! It's very very good, now we can go on K12_FRANCAIS :-)
Does "Arrgghhhhhh" translate properly or not ??? :-)
CG> I know that ! I received a lot of replies, that's why I've put
CG> such a header ! But now I've to reply all of them.
Fun isn't it. I find this whole electronic mail idea really friendly and it often helps to take me away from the boring, mundane parts of school life.
CG> Sure, I'm really happy because I have understood all of it with
CG> the use of the dictionary, of course !
Well chatting like this is one of the main reasons that I am really trying to improve my French. I love travelling to foreign places and meeting foreign people although I do not really get much of a chance as I am so young!
CG> My father told me that you have already chatted together
CG> concerning an electronical school exchange.
Have we ??? Err, perhaps you could remind me ???
CG> You are very interested by Telecom, aren't you ?
Could you be more specific ? I am interested in lots of things that are to do with that !!
CG> What're your hobbies ? I like listening music, going to the
CG> cinema, shopping, replying messages =8-)
Well I like to listen to most musics but am partial to good ballads and soft rock. Which films do you know or like in particular ? I like to go shopping for clothes and love to buy outrageous (Big word for you there!) shirts as any of my friends would tell you! What sort of foods do you like? What sports are you interested in? What do you think of England compared to other parts of the world?
CG> Every year I use to spend two weeks in England (Cardiff) to
CG> friend's home. It's superb !
You will have to come up North sometime. It is very different but I really *love* it :-)
