A lovely awkward translation this. On the English menu in a Collioure restaurant yesterday was ‘Squids doughnut’. We had to ask for the French menu to discover this was, in fact, calamari. One for your future reference.
Travel details: our journey to Toulouse and beyond was part-sponsored by Bmibaby.com. More posts here.
There’s a balkan brass band up here in Scotland called Moshie’s Bagel. Squids Doughnut could be another great name for a band. I’m liking this blog a lot so far, tweeting about it etc, how can I get involved?
Thankyou Jools. And especially for the sentence: ‘There’s a balkan brass band up here in Scotland called Moshie’s Bagel.’
How can you help? Um… Got any connections for a London-Istanbul train trip?
