French

Bizarrely unconnected to my recent complaints about not knowing any French - I will be starting French lessons through the office from next week (hopefully!). France takes over the EU Presidency on 1 July 2008, and a lot of the work that I do will start to be in French (all a bit stressful). So, for those who will have a lot of work in French, the office has offered to give lessons too. Even better, this will be in the form of a long lunch twice a week, rather than outside of work hours (e.g. evenings or weekends) when it would be a lot harder for people to make it (especially those with families).


So... perhaps a blog entry in French soon!? ahem.....

Bonjour Sarah,br/ En attendant ta première entrée de blog en Français, je ne peux pas résister à l'envie de laisser le premier j'espère, je n'ai pas vérifié ! commentaire dans cette langue, ce en quoi je l'avoue je n'ai aucun mérite puisque je suis français. J'en profite pour saluer l'ensemble de nos voisins et amis britanniques et dire que je suis un peu jaloux de votre avance : ça m'étonnerait qu'un ministère français ouvre des blogs pour ses fonctionnaires de sitôt.br/ Bonne continuation !
