    How do you ask someone if they know French?

    What does Parlez-vous français ? mean? if you hear someone say that to you they are asking "Do you speak French?" After this free French lesson you'll be able to say how much French you know, and manage a French conversation that is going too fast for you. 🙂

    I wasn't implying you might be offering stud services. 🙂

    EDIT: Are you finally starting to get some golfing in? I assumed torunn may have been talking about offering your service to do some teaching. You must know a little after all these decades!

    As of yet I’ve only played one round and that was a couple of weeks ago. We tried last weekend but we’re rained out and this weekend, although not turning out as forecast (rain) still just that once. We decided to book a tee off time for Wednesday and it looks like the weather will co operate.🤞 Having said that…who knows? In the meantime can I offer you a green tea with a bit of lemon?🤔

    I am assuming it really wouldn't be the best tasting Chocolate for certain. I have been told dark chocolate is better than white for you, I always assumed it mattered on the amount of sugar in the bar.

    The major web site update will be rolled out on the 6th May*.

    As a result, there will be a short outage plus a suspension of timeout whilst any issues are resolved.

    All platforms will be impacted, so apps too.

    *This above work may be delayed by 24 hours - this thread will be updated if this occurs.
    Should I expect a small rebate?🤔😉

    Im sure it was done under protest from people who knew better, but within Israel there are Jewish groups that would like their govt to be a bit more inclusive of this kind of content, but it never was going to last. These media houses are just plan sick and evil.
    Where does one go to get “the real truth”?🤔

    “Mistakenly” ???
    OK…we knew what it was but wanted to see what would happen and when asked why we did it we said it was a scientific experiment. Our parents were, none too pleased and grounded us for a week. We continued to “experiment” after the grounding, but we moved from “pharma” experiments to chemistry experiments…with, sometimes similar results.😲

    Yup.

    'Disperse, ye rebels! Why won't ye disperse?!'
    Yup. She was a “peacenik” but became…more engaged…but not to me yet.

    I imagine that the sideways avatar picture is a current image of you?
    Your “imagination” is correct. Not sure how to straighten it out or why it turned.🤔😡

    "The Kent State shootings ... were the killing of four and wounding of nine unarmed college students by the Ohio National Guard on the Kent State University campus.

    "The shootings took place on May 4, 1970, during a rally opposing the expanding involvement of the Vietnam War into Cambodia by United States military forces as well as protesting the National Guard ...[text shortened]... be deployed to Columbia University and other campuses to stop the ongoing pro-Palestinian protests."
    My ex wife was graduating that year from Kent State and was crossing the area when it happened. She and a friend headed to her friend’s home in Pittsburg. A few days after getting there a knock came at the door, which was answered by her friend’s dad. They asked if my wife was there and the dad asked who wanted to know. They ID’d themselves as FBI agents. The dad, an American patriot, was stunned to hear that the FBI wanted to talk to her. It seemed they found out she had friends who were members of the SDS, though she was not. They asked some questions and were satisfied that she was not involved in the organization or the rally. After the shootings she became a fervent anti Vietnam War protester.
