Ha! That's the best I've read on these boards in a long time! My French wife just loves it when I do that! She thinks it's just another way to show how much I appreciate it.
I agree with you, my amphibian friend, the English do eat weird breakfasts. I personally prefer steak and eggs with Southern biscuits (not cookies, mind you) and a big helping of grits.
And French food rules. I'll be in Paris during the Christmas holidays and I will definitely add several kilos to my weight. I can't resist Pizza Hut (for some reason much better than in Stockholm), Dominoes, KFC, Ben & Jerry's, Häägen-Daz and all the wonderful delivery and take-away Chinese, Japanese and Thai.
By the way, there is a good name for what you were talking about in Swedish. It is called to
släppa väder, let out weather. Very gentle and appropriate.

PS. I really like seeing you French people on this forum. I know the language is a challenge but keep it up!
Bon courage!, prout prout!
