2013 - Spring - A Night To Remember Entry

Lost in Venice - 1. Lost In Vencie

Thank you to Jammi and Mikie for helping me out with this smile.png
Big thanks for Mikie for giving me the title!

We have to choose by eight.

Why?

Because you’re the one who wants to save money.

Me?

No.

I was happy to book it next week.

But no.

Come on.

We have to make a choice at some point tonight babe.

Okay, I’ll change the page.

This sounds nice.

A dinner date in The Savoy Grill, followed by a romantic walk by the Thames.

Not your sort of thing?

Ah, you want une soiree inoubliable!

A walk around the Jardins du Trocadero and then walk to the top of the Eiffel tower?

Too bland?

Una noche para recorder, for you then?

Day in the sun in Alicante with the nightlife and the inevitable hot steamy sex afterwards…

Too active?

Will you make up your mind?

Ikimuistoninen…

No need to be so rude.

I was only making a suggestion.

We won’t buy tickets for there then.

Unvergessliche Nacht!

No I wasn’t swearing at you. I was speaking to you in German.

I know, all German sounds like swear words…

Okay.

Stop being snarky for goodness sake!

Do you want to go on this date or not?

Oooo! ночь, чтобы помнить!

I have it.

Walk around the Kremlin. You said you always liked big historical buildings.

Oh.

Too cold.

Okay.

Sigh.

Come on darling. Cheer up. We’ll find one we both like.

nezabudnuteľný večer!

You don’t even understand?

ARGH.

I thought you understood languages.

Okay. Breathe.

If we can’t find one soon, we can just stay home, yeah?

Okay.

Ooooo, you might like this one!

usiku kukumbuka.

Dance with the African tribes and visit friends we have there?

Too hot.

You’re just full of excuses.

yn noson i'w chofio.

Climb the hills and the valleys?

Oh.

You just don’t like my Welsh accent do you?

OH MY GOD

No.

You wouldn’t like it.

μια αξέχαστη βραδιά.

A day in the sun and a night out on the strip…

No.

I don’t even like that.

What?

Oh.

What’s going on?

Hey!!!!

You say you can’t deal with me right now.

Great.

You push me out of the front door.

I turn to open it…

Oh.

You locked me out of the apartment.

Wonderful.

 

 

I FREAKING HAVE IT

I shout so loud you can hear me from the bedroom.

una notte da ricordare.

Wander along the passageways,

Dream where the great dreamers once stood.

We come across a gondola.

I hold your hand and help you step down.

You look at me and you smile.

I tell you I love you and that everything will be alright.

You can trust me.

We become lost and I serenade you under the moon lit sky…

Come; let us see where the waters take us…

 

You open the door and look at me.

Oh you like that?

 

Mi disipace!

They just run out of tickets for that one.

 

It’s five past eight.

Great to see you enjoying yourself playing with languages. A strong idea to begin with, which you pull off (if I'm allowed to say that!) very neatly. Thanks for sharing. :)

I like your experimental pieces. They are always so different and refreshing. Very interesting take on the theme. Thank you.

Well that was erm...... interesting. A lesson in languages? Although don't ask me to pronounce some of that stuff. Jeeeeesh, or read it for that matter :P

LOL

So did it lead to a night to remember? I thought there were a couple of good ideas in that list. :)

Ohhh this was clever! I love the use of "A night to remember" in the different languages. I caught on to it right away ;) Great job JC. I've noticed some of your other works share a high level of quality as well.

I didn't get it at first. I had to read it twice to understand it, and I still don't get some of it! It was real fun to read, anyway:).
