Esprit de L'escalier...

I'm getting really rubbish at the inventive one-liner.

I called up my other half and found she was round at her sister's because it's her niece's 18th birthday today. So I said, 'Oh! Say happy birthday to her, and, er... say something funny for me, please...'

but later, a second after you hang up i bet you thought of a hundred and one witty things to say!:))

To be honest, no.

And some twelve hours later, I still don't have a line. Frankly, I'm beginning to suspect that hearing someone has just turned 18 is a hypnotic trigger to turn me into a dunce.

That said, I've just got to keep my eyes peeled for any other tell-tale woof-woofs...

Never heard of that term before. Should've paid more attention in my French lessons at School instead of reading Smash Hits.

Isn't La Ramblings actually the masculine form and therefore warrant a Le rather than a La?






I don't actually know what I just said, but given your confession, I'm not going to tell you that. At least in the first paragraph. And maybe you won't read this far.

Good to know I wasn't the only one not paying attention in language classes.
