You're invited to a magical shopping spree

[moonette1]

Hi friends,

I'm sure you are all aware that dear amamama's birthday is January 27?

I'm inviting each of you to accompany us on a very special shopping spree in which we each shop for and buy amamama a special birthday present of our choice

Excellent! :D

I need to speak to Berte now, as I'd written going to meet her and arriving together but she's probably got her own ideas. I'll wait until she's seen this first.

(And I think it should be 'Forestier de la Magie' but I'm willing to stand corrected.)

[moonette1]

LOL, I know not ONE bit of French. I'll correct it right now. :)

[megan29]

Umm... if you mean "Forest of Magic" then it's La Forêt de la Magie.

[peverell]

lol! Yes indeed! How embarrassing--I spotted the definitive article but failed on the noun. Thanks for pointing that out. :)

[moonette1]

Dear God - I'll go correct it again. Um...whose idea was it to have this party in France? :)

I'm just kidding. This is going to be fun and funny. Wait until Will starts trying to speak French...

[moonette1]

Yikes, that was me. How did LJ log me out?

[peverell]

Hee!

I'm wondering how I can get round the fact that Marcus is supposed to be fluent when I only have schoolgirl French--half-remembered at that! lol

[rosathome]

Well, you have to translate it when you write it for us anyway...

[peverell]

LOL Now I know the brain isn't up to speed --That didn't occur to me, Ros!

[rosathome]

Aren't there magical ways he can do that?

[peverell]

A phrase book that you tap with your wand and it does the speaking for you?

[rosathome]

I shall be proudly speaking Franglais all day.

[moonette1]

LOL!

[amamama]

Franglais and Norwench,my French is barely good enough for "deux personnes, deux motos, un tent" (or should that be une?)...
