Hello! Hi Miriam. We won the holiday package, it’s great! We arrived at the Blue Waves campsite this morning, but we forgot a suitcase on the train. No problem, though. We’re going to the beach this afternoon, but we need to buy some sunscreen lotion. Tomorrow, we’ll tour the surroundings. It looks like it’s so beautiful. (There) is a dance show the day after tomorrow, but we (won’t) be able to go because we’ve booked a cruise to the visit the Seven Islands. Next week, we’ re taking surfing lessons.

fumer la moquette – French expression
By Anne on April 20th, 2021
fumer la moquette - French expression
île saint-Louis
What does the French expression ‘ fumer la moquette ’ mean? How is it used in a sentence?
fumer la moquette - to smoke the carpeting. fumer la moquette means two things. First, it means to smoke pot. I'm not sure where that comes from. Is it because you're ready to smoke carpeting if you don't have pot anymore, or is it that carpeting looks like grass?
Anyway, this expression is fairly new. Its second meaning, gaining popularity, is that someone is out of it, delusional.
- « Ils disent que leur retraite va leur payer un appart sur l'Île Saint Louis. Ils ont fumé la moquette. »
- "They say their retirement plan is going to get them a condo on the Île Saint Louis (in Paris). They're delusional."
