Hard Times

Nothing to do with railroads, but.....

I heard on the radio this morning the sales of french champagne and cognac took a big hit in 2009, but sales of french vodka were up. What does that say? Bigger bang for your buck, perhaps?

A votre sante.

I guess the potato crop was better than the grape!

It didn't stop them selling 18 million bottles of fake Pinot Noir to the USA......

BBC news duff Pinot Noir

Strange thing was that no customer ever realised that it wasn't the real thing.

Ernest and Julio Gallo generally sell their "wines" in gallon jugs with screw caps. I'm not surprised their customers couldn't tell the difference. " Marge, what's this cork doin' in my wine bottle? "

Interesting how the scam was discovered, though. Lesson to thieves- do your homework.

re : USBVINO

A bit like ROFL - "rolls on floor laughing" , LMAO = rire outre de mon derrière, riez mon cul au loin

Un peu comme ROFL - pains sur rire de plancher ,

ok can somebody help out here ?

Not sure if the Fench would say Laugh My Arse Off actually.

Expressions that I have heard are:

C'est à se rouler (par terre) ! = A bit like, roll on the ground laughing.

Rire un bon coup = Have a good laugh.

revenons à ma dernière demande :
qui veut du Haut-médoc ?

Come back to my last request:
Who does want Haut- Médoc ?
