Le Café des flamants roses, le jardin des licornes

Here is a garden for discussing the story The Forest of the Unicorns in English.

The idea is that the story is written in French in the past historic tense.

Yet first, some of us will need to learn or relearn the past historic tense.

Perhaps some others who know will remind us please.

That should be “guillotined” not “guided”

Thank you.

I used to think that investing in bitcoin was a high-risk proposition. I was able to demonstrate that this is not the case by using safetrading.today/traders/day-signals/. Trust and security are built on the foundation of reliable crypto signals. I've already made a good profit, and things are just going to get better. Being lost seems to be tough, especially with such a helping service. It comes with my highest recommendation.

Being lost certainly is tough. I got lost in the maze at Longleat once, truly, truly scary.

Or even perdu(e)

I got excited (!!) when I saw the revival of this thread but it seems to have lost the plot somewhat.

I think GNHQ are all lost ?

Or stuffing themselves with mince pies ? and mulled wine ?

Lost in France ......

A la recherche du temps perdu- Marcel Proust. Has anyone ever read it?

Josianne Tue 30-Nov-21 19:46:28

I half attempted it at age 19. I think I need to go back and read it properly now.

Out of interest the style is very much that of a poster who initiated a journey through Germany some time ago. Was that you, Elderly Person?

Bellanonna Mon 12-Feb-24 09:49:04

Calistemon, are you aware that there is another Callistemon on here, with two LLs and a number? Just thought you might want to know, to avoid confusion

Crikey.
That was an unwelcome blast from the past.
Just for a moment ...

RosiesMaw Mon 12-Feb-24 10:02:53

Zut alors! Ça fut une surprise!
J’eus un vrai choc!

Germanshepherdsmum Mon 12-Feb-24 10:02:54

It’s the same person Bellanonna. She had to slightly change her name some time ago for reasons I don’t remember. This is a very old thread. ElderlyPerson no longer posts.

Germanshepherdsmum Mon 12-Feb-24 10:03:46

Moi aussi Rosies.

I thought this thread was some kind of joke, maybe it is?
