Bonjour ! I am a french senior golfer, 13 hcp, living in Brittany, west of France, a nice celtic country.
Now retired, ex manager at Canon company, business machines division.
Il am glad to register this forum, and share your discussions. And may be improve my English..... Sorry
My hobbies : Piano jazz, généalogy, children, ..of course golf.
And if you decide to come and play golf in Brittany, do'nt forget to call me ..
J-J! (we like shorthand nicks around here)...you're in good company here, be sure to tell us about golfing where you live. Don't worry about your English, it seems better already than some who claim it as their native language. Also, just as a warning, develop a "thick skin" as I'm sure you will encounter Van de Velde references and knocks on the French (not from me, of course) but, for the most part, it's all in fun 'round here. We're truly an international forum.
Bienvenue monsieur! What is it about Bretons that makes them so proud of their celtic background? Our last pastry chef was from Brittany (named Jacques as well) and after a couple of beers would start to rant about celtic heritage and Brittany and eventually fall into slurred French (and someone else's hotel room but that's a different story)...c'est fantistique ce vous arrive dans GR! (My best and last attempt at French!)
