Do you all know what he was doing there?

No, no, you don't have to tell me. I know. But for the benefit of those who don't know ... you can wait for my next post.... :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Sorry... Can you tell Mr RomeGirl and I have had a few glasses of wine tonight...!!!!
I remember those snaps! Iron Division? Or course I am probably wrong! Whatever the lads are up to they look intense.

Very interesting article, thank you RomeGirl. :tup:

But it says the exercises were conducted in English. That's the thing, English is the universal language when countries get together to cooperate.

Though I thought I heard Jonny say a few words in French when negotiating over the Banquet seating. I'm sure he knows enough to get by if not fluent?

OK…

A little bit of reading and perhaps, another insight into Jonny’s career.

Ah yes…. Um… er… perhaps (??) one too many glasses of wine.

My point was that he has experience in dealing with the French and …Finally… in answer yes, he does speak some French. Sorry.

Now if someone could send send some Paracetamol, or a proven hangover cure, I’d be grateful. :blush:
 
I was wrong, this chap with Jonny in France is not from the Embassy as I thought and posted, but as Tatler says here:

Ah, i thought the household staff were familiar to most.

When I am feeling more alive, I’ll see if I can match some pics and names… unless someone else would like to help out?
