More like a "Baise en Camping" I can guess the pop-up pup tent and gas stove are in it, along with all the rest!!!!!

I love the way I've taught you all at least one French word!!!!!
Funnily the word originally came from the french for a "Kiss" although the word was actually "baiser" which it still is, as is the verb, the verb has fallen into disuse with its original meaning.
"to kiss" in French is now "embrasser" although you can give someone "un baiser" and they will not be offended, nor need to remove a part of their clothing!! cos that would mean "to give someone a kiss".
So you can imagine what fun peeps learning the language have who only have a "clean" dictionary and having checked, dance with a French girl and then say "Je voudrais vous baiser" Thinking they are saying "I'd like to kiss you".
So "to fuck" is "baiser", a nice regular "-er" verb.
I'll test you all on this tomorrow!;)
 
I should point out that bags for men first came out in the 70s, a period when men's troos were ridiculously tight, I remember having some pairs that I could barely get my hands in the pockets of, and one that gave me severe ball ache if I wore them for an evening. So putting stuff in pockets made them severely unsightly.
Then in the mid 70s came those God-awful pants with pockets on the outside of the legs, a forerunner of "cargo pants", about the time of the Bay City Rollers, then of course we had Punk, so fashion went well downhill fast. You were safest in jeans and a denim jacket had lots of pockets if you couldn't afford a leather'un.
So the "baise en ville" stayed popular on the Continong where it is warmer and peeps don't want to wear jackets.
I will never wear cargo pants or any of that sort.
Work troos is a different matter!:):):)
 
Nearly made a schoolboy error :oops:. Was checking the spark plug gaps on new plugs ready for dottirs car service tomorrow. Checked the gap required in the book which is given in metric which I then converted to thou's imperial and put me feeler gauges on. Puzzled as to why they showed 70 thou as opposed to the 27-28 they should be. And they are pre-set, not to be adjusted as it cattle trucks them. After a bit more thinking I checked the feeler gauges - I had been using my metric set and the gaps are the 0.7mm they should be. :cool:

Mormin all.
Went to Farmers market last night, last one of the season, nice chat with friends and nice nosh.
Tells us summer is over.
then back home to yet another non-forecasted thunderstorm.
Forgot to cover the pool! Went out to get the chickens in, thought about the pool and said "Feck it", (had had a bit of wine by then), "not going all that way in the dark and wet to do it.."
so it is now at only 22 degrees and i had to fish a frog out of it. (He is OK!)
Sunny now and predicted to stay so all day.:rolleyes:
We'll see!
Have fun guys and gals!!:):):)
