    That, and "je n'aime pas les petits pois" are about as good as it gets........:rotfl:

    You don't like petits pois*? Are you sizeist? Would you say "je n'aime pas les gros pois"?!

    Have a great time regardless of vegetable size issues! ;)

    *Sorry, but that expression always makes me laugh: yes, they are small, but we dont go round prefixing other vegetables with their size in English Silly French language!

    It will be soooo tough :rotfl:

    Personally, I could happily swap gros for GROSS......je deteste touts les pois :o

    Très bien, ma cherie. Et tu n'aimes pas le poids (weight) aussi! ;)

    I wonder how you say 'no-carb' or 'low-carb' in French?!

    I should think the French would simply say "Non" to low-carb.......I certainly won't be bypassing the Patisserie next week, that's for sure :D

    I figure that even if I put back the half stone I lost in the last fortnight, I won't be any bigger than I was when I started, so that's good enough for me!

    I think they would, and for good reason!

    And mmm...the patisserie. Have a decent pain au choc for me, please. (And a flan while you are at it!)
    :D
    Chances are though, that with all the skiing you are doing you won't put on any weight.

    You can even burn off the pain au choc and flan for me. ;)

    P.S. That was just a pun, no offence intended! :eek:
