Adventures in learning French. C'est très difficile ! 😭

[James @JamesLear99]

Au secours ! Anyone else on here learning French? Any tips or resources welcome. Merci.

@zermatist Don't we lwarn at age 14 that judging an album on one listen is pointless? It takes at least three listens for *any* album to click. Exile is packed with top tier Stones songs. Let It Loose, Shine A Light, Rocks Off, Sweet Virginia, Happy, Tumbling Dice, Torn and Frayed, etc.

@IsItAnyWonder1 @qikipedia The guy who plays Wizard in Taxi Driver (the older cab driver who gives Travis advice) was John Lennon's best man when he married Yoko (Peter Boyle).

@NothyngI @decoyrobot I don't know who he means, but at a guess...

Oasis, Blur, Pulp and Supergrass

Obviously the best British band of the era was Radiohead.

@Bestofsopranos I rewatched it one time and imagined him with a cockney gangster accent and it hit home just how sleazy and gross he was. Imagined some fat East End cokehead sleeping with strippers and any mystique he had slipped away.

[James @JamesLear99]

@PGriffinFC Yes - but it will make it even funnier when Scotland go home after the group stage anyway.

@Sidneykidney4 @SpencerVignes Have you read the Red Riding trilogy by the same guy? Fantastic three part TV show too.

@Callum067726509 @oakseyboo I'm so sick of all the same posts saying 'anyone else not interested in the WC?'

I swear a lot of it is bots cos the exact same boring sentiment keeps popping up.

WC will be class, like it always is.

[James @JamesLear99]

@portraitinflesh @Lord_Sugar At least he is answering correctly!

[James @JamesLear99]

@SiGil08 @AaronBastani @ClarkeMicah It's hideous trash, like most public sculpture of the last however long.

[James @JamesLear99]

@BrendaJ69492764 @MysteriosoX That's 'Shallow Grave'. Decent enough film, but yes, the characters are all awful.

@LucyDBLanguage @McAlpine23 Scotland will manage to go home after the group stage as usual.

@WestHamPlace I would love to see footage of Matterface's reaction in the studio. Is he just gesticulting wildly, mouthing 'WTF' at Dixon?

[James @JamesLear99]

@MajArTre @MDBarton97 The odd part was Lee Dixon then going off on some tangent saying 'I can think of a few more', but 'best not say'. It just left everyone thinking... Where's he going with this?

[James @JamesLear99]

@jontranslates @DaveyBilo I was watching in a pub and only half-caught what he said. Was it after the 'Tall-Blacks' comment and him saying 'I won't say the obvious one' or something like that?

[James @JamesLear99]

@harvey_walters_ Brazil just beat Egypt 2-1. What does this tell us? Nothing. For as long as I can remember, pre-WC friendlies have never had any bearing at all on how teams perform in the tournament proper.
