Anne - is it confusing to teach school French as opposed to Old French?


Very confusing - the worksheets were based on imagined French social media posts, all modern teenage slang (probably slightly outdated by the time it made it into the textbooks), so language I didn't know at all. Most of it I could guess, though. We didn't have 'la musique techno' or 'les mangas' in my day!

I'm sure SPARTYS, the party shop, has containers of different-coloured silver kajus like that.

Perhaps that's the only representation of a scientist in a wheelchair that Edgar Wreford could remember.

Saw one of the red Joe Colombo trolleys in Forbus' lab at auction recently, but only the double-decker. Hanging out for the triple-decker.

Superficially, certainly - the subtext is usually not polite at all. Grin

SO good to have Servalan back! And she's been busy while they were sorting out their new base on Xenon. Her score matches that of Gun-Sar, 'so far'.

Exceeds it - all Servalan's kills are definitely dead, not just 'missing'.

I don't much like Servalan's outfit this week - too feathery. The boots, however, are spectacular.

Love the feathers, but the cape itself was made from some slimey synthetic stuff. Not my thing. Black cock feathers, however...mmmm.

Is that it, then? Are we done?
At least you shouldn't have lesson plans or evaluations to come up with Anne. Long may it continue!
Hope all the making can still be fun, Obsidian, even if it is 'work'.

Take care, both of you. See you next time for the Space Rats, more mud and more buddleia.

I preferred my answer – for cleaning away cobwebs. You wouldn't even need a long stick.

Prefer brown mud to white mud. Silly costumes and slimey synthetic fabric galore!

Have a good week peoples. Hope to report one big order down by next time. Stay warm and dry.

He can do both, surely - a man of many (limited) talents. Grin

The real answer is that they needed to keep him for 'Sand'. They couldn't leave Vila alone with Servalan for any length of time, because she'd corrupt him, and end up with him working for her (while not really understanding how it happened). If it had been Avon, they'd just kill each other.
