Frank, Then you were among the French-speaking Walloons of the south and not the Dutch-speaking Flemings of the north! Doug, OUI magazine doesn't count as reading french! 1979 Bertram 33' FBC ALEXANDRA Port Richey, Florida [img]http://www.bertram33.com/photogallery/p ... xandra.jpg[/img] HAVE YOU SIGNED UP FOR BERTRAM PRIDE '06 yet?

We lived in Tervuren, which is a Flemish "commune", but as a suburb of Brussels is surrounded by Wallonian villages. I spoke enough of both languages to be able to buy gasoline, beer and croissants. Nothing else was important. Frank B - IRGuy@aol.com "Phoenix" 1983 FBC Wilmington, NC

Oh mais naturellement, il rend un peu plus intéressant pour nous, et forcera d'autres à apprendre un peu de français, autre que les pommes frites et le pain grillé français, lol.
