come and chat in Fifi's cafe

@sam enerve Thanks for the update on the wellington boot incident and also for the catalogue - will be useful as I'm retiring soon! I would have loved the glasses - but I'll get some champagne flutes!

 

Good morning, colegas ingleses/as! Acabo de llegar a este baile. I'm looking for a good school to teach Spanish to A level. Any help. I am in Hendon, London NW.
PS> Going to a Latin festival today in Crouch End, N19? Musica, baile, comida, vino, churros y churros. NOs vemos alla. Regards to all,

 

C'mon, England. If there is a vacancy for a qualified, expereinced MFL teacher at your school, if that one is a good one, 20 miles from London NW4, pls let me know emersonpotter@hotmail.com Mientras tanto, vamos a la gozadera de Crouch End, nos vemos alla, lucir algo rojo, como la bandera de mi patria: Eng-gland!

 

Time to find a job. If you know of a good school 20 miles from London NW4 in need of Spanish/French, please let me know. emersonpotter@hotmail.com No agencies, please. You can find me on youtube: Latienm3. Until then. Saludos, E

 

Sorry, spelling error: it shoud read Latinem3 on youtube. Ciao for now.

 

Feel sorry for the last poster. TES should create a website with, I don't know, job adverts for teachers on it. You know, where you could type in the subject, the sector, and the town you want to work in....and a list of jobs comes up...
...They've missed a trick there....

 

Yeah. However, the window of Fifi's café has always been my preferred place to advertise.

 

We had 5 minutes to respond to the first message - the poster is clearly keen. You have to admire this ensthusiasm.

 

I think all good teachers have a touch (or more) of OCD. Come on, admit it, whose day is devastated when you arrive at school and someone is parked in 'your' space? By the way, @sam enerve, you need to move your wrecked car from Fifi's car park - that's my favourite space. How did you wreck it?

 

The cheek of it!

That's not a wreck, @BrightonEarly, it's a genuine Renzo Piano!

Either that or I drove in to a piano in the rain...

..that's sounds more like it...

It's all a bit hazy to be honest...and I don't do that very often...

BTW, don't worry, the AA are coming to shift it soon....

We need to keep quiet about this, though....

...the last time I mentioned AA in here I was almost lynched...

Fifi, a large frothy one please...

...and you'd may as well bring me a beer, too

Sláinte !

 

All good @sam enerve - will buy you a beer when I get my space back!

Fifi did say that someone stole her piano the other day - did you see them pushing it down the road? Let's get her another one and have a sing song .... What do you suggest?

 

The car has gone now @BrightonEarly I've no idea what happened to the piano.

Fifi used to have a squeezebox...

...when it was quiet she'd help me practise my fingering....

....that was before I was married. Obviously...

A large one please, Fifi...

...my train has been cancelled

....as I have no car I'm just waiting for the rain to stop...

..I could be here a while...

Prost!

 

I broke up for the holidays today, so the drinks are on me!!!!

A large glass of your finest frothy stuff, Fifi, and whatever anybody else wants!

Fortunately, judging from the amount of people who come in here I'll probably have change from a £20 note.

Have great holidays people!

Now, where did I put that croissant from breakfast.......?

 

Am very sad- only one in here tonight!

 

A nice afternoon to be relaxing, sitting on Fifi's terrasse with a pichet of the house rosé, watching the stripy jumpered cyclists vending their onions, under the watchful eye of Officer Crabtree and Michelle of the Résistance... What a time to be alive!
