Today it felt like a heat wave had arrived! The weather seems to be getting hotter! I have done my daily housework tasks and sorting out things that needed to be done at home, as well as going to the shops.
I have applied for next term for student loan. I am taking L332 BA degree in french language and culture. I have to wait about 6 weeks to hear from them. I also have my place reserved. So it is just a matter of waiting now.
We stay in the cool lounge this afternoon and he was happy to read to himself quietly. We had a good walk yesterday but had to sit in the shade most of the time.
This afternoon I read my novel in french language. It is a detective story by Agatha Christie translated from english into french. The language is not too difficult and is every day language.
I am getting the gist of it, because I vaguely seem to remember reading it a long time ago, but in english. As always, I have my french/english dictionary beside me, to look up any french words I don't know. The storyline was interesting so I read with great enthusiasm.
I am now halfway through the book! Hopefully, I will be able to understand it all and become familiar with all the words in french. I wish !
