We were taught French in school as it was compulsory.
I know how to ask where the Supermarket is ( it sells beer)
I know how to order a number of beers when its my round.
I can order 1/2KG of cheese at a time to go with the beers.. oh and some bread.
Yep, French came in handy when I went round Europe.. was good in Spain too as its a very similar language.
Other than that... learning French was a complete waste of time
