Remains N° 2 (an apple over my shoulder)

After monday as everyoneknowsorshouldknowdamnit Romans imposed their calendars and the days of the week were to celebrate every Gods of the Roman pagan list in order:
Mars,Mercury,Jupiter,Venus,Saturnus and they finaly reserved the last day for leisure.so >>>
Mardi,Mercredi,Jeudi,Vendredi,Samedi and Dimanche(missing day).
Yes I know:Apple is going to propose Suridi for Dimanche "Say! Good idea!"and to hell with the
damn Romans.
The Normands,Normandie facing Cornwall, call their door knobs(QUITE APPLE!!) "Clench" and
the Bretons' tribord' is the english 'starbord' gather it means" rightside" in Celtic.And so on.
NO APPLE,THEY WON'T CHANGE THAT TO SURIBORD.
The roman word for beer was something like"Cerveza" in old aristocratic french it was 'cervoise'
but all the french people kept to call it" Biere",the old Celtic word for Brew.Hurray !!for french
pubs.Aye (yes ) is still in use in some parts of France.In french slang some say "Ouaille" for oui,
and that sounds like 'oowaiye';far away from the roman "si".

LOL! That was delightful! You have a great imagination!

And YES...I do think there should be a Suriday but I don't think the doorknob should be a Suriknob. She'll just claim the whole blooming door!

I remember Yvette used to say "ouaille" instead of "oui" and I sort of picked it up from her. But only when I was in Marseille.

Lots of things to be picked up in Marseille.You picked something that's pretty light to carry and doesn't need to be declared to customs.Smart Apple.

Oh boy!!!!
I can imagine the president of Italy answering "yes" to China's
president on any question.
Dreadful sight.
