He’s great.

I too chose the dishiest assistant in a pharmacie the other day to process my lengthy prescription, but after searching on all the pieces of paper he gave back to me – I’m not eligible for a carte vitale unfortunately so make a claim to the CPAM- no phone number. He did show me his extremely sexy smile though so can’t complain!

(and pardon my English by the way !)
I always enjoy reading your stories, and I really liked this one.
I can understand your dislike of French “pharmacies” ! For the very same reason you don’t like them, I was glad to find every kind of medicines on the shelves of Boots or Tesco when I was living in the UK !

Try “Broncocod” – I think it comes in sweetand plain versions. Must have codeine in it too.

I enjoyed your singing bird. Pharmacists give lots of information here in Mexico as most prescription drugs are far beyond people’s means. And while the French health service is the best in the world (and fast going broke) some of it is because of over prescription.

In my experience, French pharmacists are usually rather middle aged, even when young, and always quite grumpy. But no doubt the attractive assistant could help her with any pharmaceutical needs she may have. Not that she has any of course, apart from her winter colds…

I am a breton living in the UK and since I have discovered the following website: http://www.granddictionnaire.com “Technical” words are not an issue anymore.

I have been reading your blog for a while and have enjoyed it. Especially the bits on tadpole learning 2 languages at the same time as my daughter has similar difficulties!

Could you explain the “little English songbird” thing, I really didn’t understand it ?

Sorry
