Thanks, Barbara. I have applied to join the Dirk Bogarde group and if accepted, I will take a look around the site. I don't know if I'll be posting anything though. Yahoo groups is not a favourite of mine. Ever since I joined, I keep getting emails in my Yahoo inbox and when I open them up, I find that they're not for me at all, but intended for other members. Very odd.

David,

I'm delighted you joined the Bogarde group. It doesn't matter if you post or not although I hope you will share your fine review of Hunted with everyone. I'm happy we have an appreciator of Sir Dirk and one as informed as you with us. Posts to the group go to all members including those that seem directed to a particular member's post so you will get some not solely aimed at your comments. They all tend to be quite interesting, so hopefully you'll find that true also. Everything about Bogarde is fascinating, no?

All the best,

Barbara

I have reasonable conversational German. I had a German pen-friend when I was at school and we're still in regular contact 30+ years later. I had to use it recently when a German couple came visiting when I was staying with friends. She could speak English but he only had German with a few words of English. But I managed a few interesting chats with him even though I haven't spoken German for quite a few years.

I also found it to be a curious linguistic experience was when I went to a film festival in Spain with a French lady. She speaks French and English, I speak English & German. Neither of us spoke Spanish. And as it was in the little town of San Sebastian which isn't a tourist town, most of the people in the local shops and restaurants didn't speak much English. But we got by very well with a bit of smiling and pointing [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

But the interesting discovery was that we could both read the local newspaper. As Spanish is a Latin based language, as is French and a lot of English, we could guess the majority of what we read and then fill in the gaps with a few checks in the Spanish-English dictionaries we had.

Sounds like a perfect friendship, Steve! My dear brother once joked that his ideal woman would say nothing at which I gave him quite a few words in his ear and a tap on the arm. Too bad he tapped back [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

You're fortunate in having conversational German. I grew up hearing my mother speak low and high German to her brothers and sisters and although I 'understood' it, I never learned to formally speak, read, or write it. My parents preferred I become proficient in English although I could have mastered both languages had they realized that.

Best
Barbara

I should think a hefty clout on the ear would have been better!
There's no way to stop this French lady talking. But with that lovely accent (and that she's a PhD) she's always worth listening to.
