Karen's notes: These are from our first night on the boat. Notice that there is a theme here of means of transportation, but no boat. I was lying there, waiting to see if he would reference the boat. I think STM was purposefully messing me about.
"bonne chance" = good luck, french
"choo-choo" = train, kiddie-speak (for the benefit of our non-native-English speaking readers)
chou chou is also a french term for a favourite person (though chou actually means cabbage)
ReplyDeleteChou chou makes more sense. Rather sweet!
ReplyDelete"Chou" is pronounced like "shoe" though. And he definitely made a ch not sh sound.
ReplyDeletekinda like july 9 post, but now STM is wanting others to admire him. so, cycling comment = Tshirt. pure awesomeness.
ReplyDeleteKaren, I think you're developing some Brit-speak saying "messing me about" =P
ReplyDeleteI noticed that too, Karen, I always hear your voice as having a Boston (Mass.) accent!
ReplyDeleteActually, in Boston, I think "messing me about" would be rather risque!
ReplyDeleteThe cycling comment reminds me of pretty much every triathlete I know. :-D
ReplyDeleteFirst German, and now French! STM is getting all international on us!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to make of the bicycling comment, though!
Does anyone think it sounds like he's saying 'sight-seeing' rather than 'cycling'? Do Brits use that term? It would be quite funny, actually...he wants his 'arse' to be one of the sights!
ReplyDeleteWow, I re-listened, and it DOES sound like sight seeing...
ReplyDeletemy arse is a sight!
ReplyDeleteYes, it does sound like "sight seeing," there is a definate "t" sound in there. More like "sight seen" though.
ReplyDeleteBikes and trains these are a few of my favorite things!
ReplyDelete"I like cycling, because I want everybody to stare at my arse. Mmm-hmm."
ReplyDeleteNow I know why so many cycle...
Ah, mon petit choo-choo.... (Toot TOOOT!) 7@=Q
ReplyDeleteif STM starts singing "Voulez vous couchez avec moi, se soir? gitche gitche ya ya ya" I would probably buy a feathered boa for the him and bust out laughing.
ReplyDeleteI think this quote should be sold on all kinds of cycling paraphernalia. I LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteAbout "Choo-Choo" : kids use the same sound in French to describe a train (we just spell it "tchou-tchou")... Would it be likely that Adam knows that?
ReplyDeleteIndeed, why else would anyone ride a bicycle?
ReplyDeleteWell, I obviously can't account for the entire country, but at least in my little part of the U.S., we use "choo-choo" in reference to trains, too! Particularly as small children or when talking to small children. My brother was all for dump trucks, but my grandpa's a huge fan of choo-choo's! He used to collect model trains. :D
ReplyDeleteReally want to have "I like cycling, because I want everybody to stare at my arse. Mmm-hmm." as T-shirt or even shorts.
ReplyDeleteI have a brother who just needs to have that kind of shorts for christmas. He does mountain biking orienteering which is the craziest sport in the world, but now I know why he does it.
You have lost me with this one "Bonne chance. Bonne chance. And now it is time for my choo-choo"
