Dave, that's a great way to learn French.
If you want to learn German would you then do it with some beer?
We're visiting a small guest house in the Middle Rhine region again this year, trouble is they speak good English so things deteriorate after a bottle or two.
I've tried Swedish with homebrew in Falkenberg, Can't remember much from that apart from a great evening with really good friends.

Here we go again
Singular: lens
Plural: lenses
As for which lens?
I haven't a clue.

The MX does trump all others in the sheer pleasure-of-use stakes though.

The one on the desk is empty and just about to be refilled!

The noise was fantastic and what a sight to see as the Speedbird climbed into the blue.
So sad BA had no foresight.

After the umpteenth bottle we were all speaking Franglais though!
Bring on the holidays and a trip across the water...

Probably one of the reasons I've decided for Pentax - a proper weight
You just can't win...

Now I know why you Dutch are so good at foreign languages, over here in the UK we were lucky to be taught French as a second language.
Modern schools seem to skip anything but English until students are 10 or 11 years old, then it's too late to learn them easily!
Mais je prefere Francais pour une deuxieme langue.
But I do tend to speak it better than I can type it, and my spell checker is only in English.

but here in Québec, I see too many young adults flipping burgers at McD.
"Do you want fries with that?"
I suffer from bad spelling, my spell checker is standing next to me right now pointing out my deficiencies.
Bless her!

I only came to the MX party last year and I have to say I'm very pleased I did! Lovely camera to use and there's something about all-mechanical designs that inspires faith in their longevity, like a well-made Swiss watch
However, the aesthetic condition of the particular example on offer was somewhat below average, and I will just have to wait until a better one comes along.
There was, however, an ME Super though....
(It's all in the journey?)
If you want a minter then be prepared to wait and probably pay through the nose.
In the mean time enjoy your MES, I presume you did buy it?
