A few weeks ago we popped into a shop here to buy some appliances. As we paid, we asked the lady at the counter where we go to collect the stuff. She rattled off something long and fast in French and we both stood there, staring at her blankly. Noticing that there were people in the queue behind us, we said "Pardon" and she repeated it slowly in French again.
At some point in that reply I picked up one word and said to My Man "We fetch it from behind the shop."
He looked at me stunned and said "How do you know?". I smacked him on the bottom and said..."You have a nice derriere".
Needless to say the couple behind us thought it was funny. That was the only word I picked up - but who said knowing how to say "Nice behind" in French wouldn't help one day.
