Another language would be great
I really should learn French seeing as the other half's mother is French and has family in Nice.

I get the feeling Spanish would be awesome though.

My youngest sister works over there and speaks fluent Spanish.
She could help me.

I really wish I'd kept up my French
I was nearly fluent when I left school at 18, then I discovered fun and stopped practising

There was a tradition of rape in Sparta.
Chompy would have fitted RIGHT in.

I believe there was also a tradition of all the men being vainglorious braggards
You know where I'm going with this

Vippers

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:37, Reply)

Vippers would make a semi-good Spartan
They went in for their beards, though kept the moustache shaved.


Though they also had their hair long, as it made "the beautiful men more beautiful, and the ugly men more ugly". I'm thinking of two this could apply to...one of each.

I'm not muscular or disciplined enough to be a Spartan

Neither am I
but luckily Lampito is fat and has a funny accent, so I'm ok there, so I can pretend to be.

Kitty would make an excellent Spartan woman
We like sex and are physically fit*, we sleep with lots of people and actually get out of the house.



*on these criteria I am a dreadful Spartan woman

Braggarts, or blackguards.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:32, Reply)

or blaggards?

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:33, Reply)

Or am I wrong?

( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:33, Reply)

I think blaggard is a contraction of blackguard

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:37, Reply)

I'd never heard braggart
and was wondering if I'd been mishearing/reading braggart as blaggard.
( Lampito rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:39, Reply)

Blackguard is pronounced 'blaggard'

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 15 Jul 2010, 9:41, Reply)

Thanks for that Monty
could you follow me round in real life picking me up on those things too?
