Fucking hell...wednesday my coach back from London took 4 hours instead of 2 and a half meaning I got home at 3.15am, and today my 1pm flight to France was delayed until 5.30 and then cancelled. It's not my week.

Anyone been to Montpellier? Anything to recommend? Might spend a day in Nîmes too, go see the Roman ampitheatre and stuff.

She looks like she's impersonating a human.

Eleven Sports do.

Yorgos Lanthimos

Off on loan to Hoffenheim according to the Mirror...but it's only them reporting it as far as I can see.

New striker unlikely according to Eyraud. @Batard are you happy with Germain and Mitroglu?

You've only just seen it? I thought it was great but not up there with his best.

Is Hazard expected to start tomorrow? I've just stuck him in my fantasy team.

I'd say the people who are scared/embarrassed to go alone need to grow up and stop worrying about what other people think. Watching a film at the cinema and watching a shitty leaked copy on a laptop isn't quite the same experience.

Not at all. I go to the cinema to watch a film, not to spend time with another person.

Le dîner de cons...it's french.

Watch the original.

@nudge does it exist in any of your languages?

The expression "to be packed like sardines" exists in several languages. I know for certain that it exists in french and spanish...there were more but I don't remember them.

Fucking hell, just stuck a tenner on Everton -22 at 5/1.

"First team coaches Neil Banfield, Tony Colbert, Jens Lehmann, Gerry Peyton and Boro Primorac; Head of Medical Services, Colin Lewin; Physiotherapists Andy Rolls and Ben Ashworth; Osteopath Dr Philippe Boixel and Travel Manager Paul Johnson have left the club." Hopefully our injury record will improve

I have a french friend I met online that I've visited twice in France, and she's going to study in Russia in September, so I might be going to Moscow.

And if he asks me which one I will give him the same blank stare I give to french people who speak to quickly.

Haha yeah true, but I don't feel comfortable interacting with humans when I don't know the language. I don't want to be the tourist who demands to be spoken to in English.

I've been in Strasbourg since sunday, and today I decided to take a quick trip into Germany while my friend is at work. I didn't want to go too far, so without much research, I chose Offenburg because it's a decent sized city. I've been here about half an hour and I'm bored. There's nothing here. I'm currently sat in a park to escape the sun for a bit. Maybe I should go and get a beer, but I don't speak a word of German...

What do you get out of pretending not to know Africa is a continent?

I bought one a month ago. It's nestled safely under our tree.
