Bibliotheque municipal !

I hope to spend lots of time here this year :)

undecided

to revise grammar points...or not to revise grammar points
that is the question.

does it matter if I go to France with my French feeling a bit rusty?
I am after all, still a student.

but can I really expect people to respect me with my shoddy grammar and stuttering pronunciation?

what I wouldn't give to sit down for coffee with my lovely course-mates and get a little casual practice before the big day!

*sigh*

And so the countdown begins...

Staring at my calender I realise I have one month go. 

Only one month to devour as much real ale and roast beef as I can!


Preparations are well under way. 
Train tickets are booked ( hello 12 hour journey :L ), and I have been put in contact with a lovely lady who will collect me from the station and has already invited me to dinner with her family on the evening I arrive! Just hope I'll be awake  enough to make some sort of conversation!


Now I just need to find a warm coat and snow boots! - The previous assistant has warned me of nights dropping to -30 in the winter...can that even happen?


If I lose my toes to France, I shall not be happy!
