When the French say that they're doing 'La tournée des grands-ducs', it means that they are going on a classy drinking tour of all the best joints in town. An upmarket pub crawl.

In French, Jean sounds just like the English Sean. Connerie is rather rude, but could be translated as bullshit (or worse. Look it up.)

Café allongé. A long coffee. Allongé also means laying, or lounging.

A rude awakening for these walkers taking a nap while walking in the Pyrenean mountains. Available as an A4, A3, A2 print and on canvas.

Dirty, dusty and tired, but happy to bring the hay in.

'Faire Chabrot, the regional tradition where one add a little red wine to the last of the soup and you drink from the bowl.

Watching me, watching you.
