    I got me some AirMiles tickets to Paris on the 28th (sorta signficant date...). I'm going with my geek-tastic girlfriend :D It should be pretty awesome.

    On another note, WE GOT TO 100!!!!!!

    For the weekend I'll officially be "poisson-rouge" :D

    Star: Blogtastic! :D PM Box is now totally desolate :)

    Insomniac: was thinking about swimming, but when you've got AirMiles no point shelling out for anything else eh? :D

    I'll go tell those surrender-monkeys whats what. WITH MY VERY LOUD AND PATRONISING ENGLISH ACCENT!!! IF YOU TALK LOUD ENOUGH THEY'LL UNDERSTAND YOU. HELLO? COULD I HAVE A VERY SMALL COFFEE PLEASE? YES, A COFFEE. *makes patronising gestures to signify cofffee* YES? THANK YOU.

    Thankfully my female companion got an A at GCSE french - if that means anything. I can speak German, just, but French is totally off the radar.

    I been there! I been there! For me the coolest thing was finding out that they really do say "Ooh Laa Laa."

    Have a blast - it is tres cool!

    Check out the catacombs if you get a chance. Take a flashlight.

    Yep, Parisian and Roman drivers are pretty deadly! (No, not chariot drivers, though some think they are). :mad:

    The public Loos were a shock. I’m looking for the ‘Gents’, so I don’t go into the wrong side, and find they were mixed, anyway. Made me hang on a looong time, ‘till I got back to the apartment! :eek:

    Paris with the girlfriend? Couldn't think of a better thing to be doing. Have grand ol' time, Goldy! ;)
