Our Day Off

This is our day off. At least it was until I got on to the computer.

And how does a typical Frenchman spend his day off ???

The French students among you will recognise the famous French Grammar reference "le Bled". Pascal is checking what homework Claire has to do for tomorrow, has come across a new grammar exercise book and is comparing the terms and explanations with his own dim past school memories ! And loving it!

This may be just one example of the famous "exception française" - the French exception. They don't seem to do things the way others do, and they certainly don't like to conform to general rules and regulations. They have their own way of doing things. This term applies to culture, politics and general law issues. The French are very proud of it.
