Paris in springtime is Lovely !

SOIS JEUNE ET TAIS TOI ....... Be young and shut up......
Yes, Paris in springtime is Lovely, Okay, it’s maybe too many dogs and maybe too many unhappy people walking around, but it is a lovely town for me to live in for awhile. We have been talking about 1968 and “the revolution”, I’m too young to remember, but here it’s in the mind of many people.

Paris 1968 - Paris 2008 The student’s riots of Paris 1968 continue to divide the French 40 years on. We share memories and two bottles Côte du Rhône for 3.50€, not too bad.

Do "Not Too Bad" mean good? – Not necessarily (or always) but it implies something marginally better than 'bad'; something that is 'reasonable', but not much more than that - just about OK, or very slightly better.

It’s too bad… 1st of May, Philip said the Louvre was closed…. and Xavier said, They stole a holiday from us! Ascension is a holiday but it's today. This year Toussaint falls on a Saturday, and all agree that “Sarko” is bad! This is a bad year ! ! !

Note: Nicolas Sarkozy, de son nom complet; Nicolas, Paul, Stéphane Sarközy de Nagy-Bocsa, souvent appelé «Sarko» …. but that's not too bad for a given name...!?

Okay, it’s maybe too many dogs and maybe too many unhappy people walking around here, but it is a lovely area for me to live in for awhile.

So life is Not Too Bad after all, Happy me, just waiting for Agnès Cadart, entering my front door in Montmorency, saying; Salut, Comment ça va, Bonjour or Hello... ! ! !

See you soon, à bientôt, salut, au revoir, bonne journée.... Hi!
