Anyone who knows " my Malcolm" knows he is an exceptionally fluent French speaker, but it even happens to the best. I sent Malc into the quincaillerie to ask for a small plastic spade, you know bucket and spade type. I use this to clean out the nesting box of the hens each day, and today the handle snapped off the one I use. Malc got into the shop and had a mental block on the word for spade, all he could think of was " pique" which in card games that is what spades are! He explained to the dreaded Vidaillac ( he is well known in Laguepie) that he wanted an implement to clean out the hens, when pique did not work. A huge shovel was produced and Malc said "we only have two hens and a little box" I want something children play with in the sand. He did eventually manage but I do wish I had gone in to witness this, I would have been rolling around the aisles.The word by the way as we all know is pelle. ( as in mini pelle)
