It's wonderful indeed. You can feel your weight going up as you eat them

TB, did you confuse the choc and pistachio cake with the carolo? Because that's the one you tasted.

Ah, merde, mais oui!
Translation of the above: Indeed you are right. Maybe I will stop in Charleville tomorrow on my way to Reims and get one

You could stick around a little, it'll be the first day of the Puppet Festival!!!
I'll be helping out at the cafeteria of the MJC Gambetta between 1 and 4pm. 
PS : I like your translation!

I don't think I will manage this time 
I'll arrive on Friday and leave on Sunday with 
, and Kiel is far away (I'll pass CM after 4pm most probably).

ah, well, I understand.
*sulk, sulk, sulk*
another time, maybe.
be aware, though, that because of the Festival, you might find it hard to park, should you decide to stop.

Ah, thanks for warning me 
Why sulk though? You like driving huge distances?

If it was about driving huge distances, i'd have said 
.
No, it's just that i'm a bit disappointed that you prefer your family and to me... 
there'll be plenty of other occasions, though.

Not really, but I'll be aching all over 
Anyway, I would have to get up too early to arrive before 4pm. or would you like me to arrive at 4:15 and drive you away somewhere?

And for longf distances?
Although, really, I quite like it too. It's very far but almost all is highway. Have you ever driven on German highways? There are always roadworks, and (at the wrong times) traffic jams 
In the morning on the radio I listen to the 'Staumeldungen' -- the traffic jam announcements. They announce where the bottlenecks are, what length, and sometimes the reason (accident, roadworks, etc.) These days there is a 20km long traffic jam every morning around some roadwork (only one free lane on the highway, a killer!)
Mmmh, 
obviously.

>>drive you away somewhere<<
can't! I have tickets for 3 shows between 4.30 to 11.30, and I'm hoping to grab one for another show at 11.30!
It's going to be veeeery long days, but after all, it's only ten days every 3 years! 
ah yes, the smiley.
