Who am I and what is this blog about?

I am a lucky ex Pom living Down Under teaching French (well) and Japanese (badly) in a lovely secondary school.  Although I am not really French- hence the title ersatzfrog, I adore all things French ( except the meat) I have lived in France when I studied Sciences Politques at Bordeaux University and then later in Paris when my husband was working there as an engineer.  I would love to share all my thoughts about French language and life with you.

Merci mes enfants

Well we were supposed to be doing French online but then my students red herringed me ( why am I so easily distracted?)  Anyway - long story short, they showed me ho to set up my own blog so here it is - the very first one!

Lots of French to follow another day....
