I also have 5 years learning and GCSE French too
DS1 is about to start German for GCSE and has only learnt it for a couple of months a few years back.
I wanted to be a helpful Mummy, plus fancied learning something new
Once I've mastered this I'll move on to French :j

Well, the wall plaque thingy I made and glazed a while ago is finally back from the firing kiln
And I made some coasters, too - the stamped-out lettering says 'My favourite drink is the next one':beer:'It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.'

You make me sound cleverer than I am
It's only school level stuff which usually means you can't do much more than say your name and know a load of words.
I definitely can't hold a conversation with anyone in either French or German at the moment.

My brother went to university in Alaska, followed by studying in Hawai'i, from whence he went to Alabama. He is married to an American girl and has two kids, he is an Associate Professor of Geophysics in the University of Alabama, and very settled out there. He now has dual nationality.
I have to admit DS1 is doing very well for himself, but we still miss him every day.100
