Levity always most welcome presence in my ever more erratic online life, so - thanks Nick! (hug-playfulSlap-puppy-lile-lick-Eden)
There! See how desperate/lucid one can get after one has been internetless for 48 hours. I blame all the deprived & depraved symptoms on my local ISP. And Paris odysset is nearing, so please do try to be a wee bit envious. I know you're quite experienced in Parisian..er..experiences? But I'm just having my first go at 2 weeks Marais-based fun, so bare (do!) with me, OK?
hey peter. internetless for 49 hours - i'm surprised you survived at all. welcome back to the land of the living! about paris, you'll have to tell me the kind of experiences you are after - i might shock or make you yawn if if start giving info in the wrong direction. wait to hear again then. nick
(an aussie friend has suggested I drop the 'ozzie' adjectivating and add the 'you dag' to every sentence starting "Nick...", but I have no idea what he means, of course) Paris? Feel free to info me into shock. I am looking for all sorts of interesting experiences and once in a lifetime opportunities. Opera, ballet and avoidance of tourist traps are already firmly entranched, and I have been re-reading your suggestions of accomodation and superb eateries. Now I only need the parts I have to shock myself into et les môts pour le faire. En suivant une façon naturelle de lasser le chôses 'pass'...
Merci tant,
Pierre ;)
P.S., Oui, les 48 h (et demi) sans internet ont été le suffisant pour me faire entendre que l'Enfer c'est pas tousjours Les Autes. Quelquesfois il est seulement une connection terrible...
Excited about exploring a whole range of things on this blog which is, in fact, an extension of one I've been putting out since 2006. So postings about travel, books and photography I like, history, personal/anecdotal stuff of the non-'I Suffer' variety. So a potpouri of stuff to prove I'm just your average well-balanced kinda guy!
