To be honest there have been only a few and we have been surprised how many people speak some form of English, but at times ordering food has been exciting, particually when it arrives and isn´t what you expected.
In Paris simon was telling us about how he was impressing the kids and in his absolute best French he ordered 2 beers and 2 lemonades for the kids. They were very impressed until 2 loaves of bread arrived! I have had my moments and on our last day in Paris we had lunch with Thorney after visiting the Pere Lachaise cemetery I ordered a nice bottle of white wine to share. Out arrived 1 jug of cheap red wine and 1 jug of cheap white wine. When our meals arrived none of us knew who´s was who´s so we just guessed. The most fun has been the road signs. I have been taking pictures of some of them, but it´s fair to say we understand very few of the hazard signs.
They put up big flashing lights and warning signs and we drive straght past them not having a clue!
