You do have a point, TB 
, although skill in another langiage at least suggests the ability to have skill in one's own

WEll said, toybox. I think it takes a site like hootoo, and having been a member for as many years as me, for a non-native speaker to relax about what they *know* is wrong grammar. I still usually say 'whether' in the right context, although all and sundry say 'if'.

The lady I had had interviews with called me yesterday ; they've taken someone else, but might need other people soon, so she's keeping my CV and everything... 
Back to the job ads, then...

Keep on keeping on, Stunners. Dorothy would never have got to the Emerald City if she'd given up
Not a thoroughly bad outcome this time, either.

Stunners -
I had hoped you had a film called The Wizard of Oz in France.
In it, a girl called Dorothy (Judy Garland) gets caught up in a whirlwind in Kansas and lands in Munchkin Land. Her only hope of getting home lies in The Emerald City, where the Wizard of Oz lives. The film is mostly about her travels along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, accompanied by various characters, and obstructed by the Wicked Witch of the West. Made in about 1944. It's a film made from a children's book, and is in a children's idiom, but it's one of the most popular films (not just for children) of all time. See it if you get the chance - I love it.
My point was she'd never have reached the Emerald City without persistence.
Sorry for using a reference you don't know.

Jabs, thanks for the explanation.
I've heard of Wizard of Oz, but didn't know anything at all about the story.
I'll see if I can get it from the library.

The film with Judy Garland as Dorothy is beautiful.
I'm sure you know the song: Somewhere over the rainbow?

Oh, good. I thought you were possibly too young to know it.

It was used in the soundtrack of an ER episode once, a long time ago. (Hey, Mark Greene was still alive!)

Haven't watched that for years. Is it still running? What did Mark die of, that tumour?

Superfrenchie Posted Mar 14, 2009
Yeah, it came back and he died.
I think the last season will be starting in France some time this year.
I don't think they're making any more now, though.

They'd be silly if they did, as Grey's Anatomy is so much better anyway.

Superfrenchie Posted Mar 14, 2009
I've never watched Grey's Anatomy, is it really good?

aka Bel - A87832164 Posted Mar 14, 2009
Yes, it is. I quite liked ER, too, but at some point, it got just too much somehow.
