Mapple MyPhonies

Here we are - a bit of French, a dig at Apple, the Simpsons and an illicit video that will surely disappear as quick as winking.

I so identify with all that Lisa says. If they would bring the price of those MyPhonies down just a little - say to $20 - I'd get a pair.

Saddo !

I have a mypod, and I ditched the myphonies as quick as possible for a 6.99 set of headphones of amazon. Cheaper, better and less likely to get me mugged.

Very wise.

I am sometimes tempted by MyPod Nanos ( they're so COOL ) but my phone plays MP3 files very well and I always have it with me. A MyPod would be just another thing to remember to take with you, and keep charged up, and everything...

My phone is somewhat akin to the mouse I have laid traps for chez moi in some regards.
1) I have no great admiration or love for it
2) it is not that shiny.
3) It cannot play mp3s.

Larry, how do you feel about dogs? (Preferably those too large to fit in one of your traps). I certainly wouldn't suggest a cat to catch the mouse, I'd probably set the trap for that myself, but not everything hairy (and sadly, these days, that excludes me,) is totally useless.
Just a thought.

A bit about music exams in UK and France

They're really different. I think I have already mentioned that while in the UK people generally find a private teacher for their instrument, or do it through a school scheme, here there are municipal music school, conservatoires and so on. The situation is a little more complex than I had first understood, because the schools vary in the rigidity of their organisation: the most, the conservatoires, next the municipals, then the associations. Our music school is an association, but it tends to apply the standards of the municipal schools with its programme of cycles, etc. Britain - grade 1 to 8, grade 8 being roughly equivalent to A-level, pre university/conservatoire. France - 3 cycles, each taking about 4 years, with 3ème cycle being roughly equivalent to grade 8. Theory of music - UK to take grade 8 you need theory grade 5. In France you study theory alongside your instrumental studies, very slowly. Catrin's flute music is MUCH more difficult than the stuff she does in theor

The Kitchen

 Our new apartment will be equipped with toilet and bathroom etc. but not with anything at all in the kitchen. Not even a sink. So we need to purchase a kitchen and engage a kitchen fitter. A friend who knows how to fit kitchens suggested buying an Ikea kitchen. "They're guaranteed twenty years and they honour their guarantee", he said. "I've proved it". Well I don't know any other kitchen laces in France, and I can't imagine there's much that's cheaper than Ikea, so I was happy to accept his advice. So it was that on Monday I booked an appointment with the Ikea Kitchen Planning Service in the centre of Bordeaux. The woman was friendly. "You've already started the process", she said, (have we?) "so that will save us lots of time". "What are you aiming for?" Something not too country, something discreet, something that can adapt to whatever colours we put in the rest of the room. She understood our dislike of
