Interesting that the pompous Englishman on our course that considers anything he might have to say on any subject far too important to be communicated via a secondary and clearly inferior language, has coincidentally a particularly loud and ringing voice. I keep hoping someone will explain to him the concept of immersive language learning.
Apart from this small annoyance, I am feeling much more positive today. Woken at the crack of dawn by a very impressive thunderstorm. A morning of French, and now on the hunt for replacement figurines.
