We still have a few tricks up our sleeves! Tune in this week for poetry by fictional characters. 

We told you we wouldn't forget about June! This month we read a classic crime novel - Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie. Grab your driest red wine and pop in for a French lesson! Bisous!

It's round four of the lyrics challenge! We may be two (almost three) weeks late but here ya go. If you don't like folk music or angsty girl bands, maybe skip this episode (but don't really, you'll break our hearts).
