Not much, then!
Small world...I'm a Frenchiphone (when required) as well. And a Spaniophone if in life-threatening situations. Can speak/sign a few others as well, but not to anywhere near the other levels. Would like to learn Latin, though, as I feel a bit left out.
Please call me 'Pickle'

The Return is an excellent book - I highly recommend it!
Just collected The Tent, The Bucket and Me from the library after a recommendation on here, looking forward to it.

Pickle I did a bit of basic Latin at school, would love to be able to speak Italian or Spanish though. Totally useless at French. Something to put on my Bucket List.
Just finished The Daughter Game by Kate Long, my honest opinion, don't bother
Three quarters of the way through it just turned awkward and unrealistic. I just didn't get it.
Next on the TBR pile 'We are all made of glue' Marina Lewycka.
Tis raining and ideal snuggle on sofa with book weather DC.
