we just had an advert placed on our intranet bulletin board -
It's for a 19yr old girl looking for a summer job in England, as au pair, in order to help improve her English.

The advert was placed in French.

All very well laughing, but she's only 19.

Why not email her back and nicely suggest that she re-posts in English.
And ask for a suitable reward.

i believe jimmy is referring to the splendid film in which the even more splendid ludivine sagnier goes for a holiday that goes somewhat awry, and forgets to pack many clothes for the trip.

Sorry, I've always had a soft spot for French girls

indeed flatboy. i think the film is quite arty / intelligent (if I paid attention to the story) which makes gratuitous cans just fine in my book.

yeah exactly - though i found the presence of her quite so naked quite so often... er... distracted me somewhat from the film's other merits. not necessarily in a bad way. 😆
