Ah, she is from the very north of France, they can have an accent close to an English speaker speaking French. That explains it! Louane Emera - Wikipedia[^]
Anyway, with a 'nom de plume' such as yours, mr Bean, you should be fluent!

She almost sounds like she has a Belge accent to me.
I liked the song - reminded me of Francis Cabrel who I occasionally listen to.

Yes, a northern accent for sure.
When I speak French I have been mistaken for a Luxemberger, Belge, and Norman. I have the same accent.

My accent is apparently pointu.

GRANOLA
Gran = elderly relative
Ola = Spanish welcome
Granola - a substance that, if you feed it to pigs and chickens, can be part of breakfast

... is of course the correct answer. Well done Duncan - your turn tomorrow.

Hate to quibble, but ...
"Welcome elderly Spanish relative" != "Elderly relative Spanish welcome"
Either way, my answer of "Abuelo-Os" was never really going to work ...

I think you might have mentioned it in passing ...
Hope you have a good one!

Herself finds granola to a be a perfectly acceptable breakfast.
I also have to eat it, and can report it is excellent is fortified correctly, and in the correct proportions.
The addition of sausage, bacon, mushrooms, tomato, beans, toast, and saute potatoes improves it greatly, but for some reason there is always a small pile of seeds left over on the side of the plate that I lack the space for.

Just a quick one; How many CPeople are using F# these days, and if so what for?
Like many others, I found it very interesting when it first came out, but never really found a compelling application for it, and there don't seem to be many F# jobs around so...

Well, I use it everyday in many situations.
To express frustration: oh, for F# sake!
To express incredulity: the F# do you want me to do?
To express disappointment in something: this F#ing car is pure undiluted junk;
To express surprise: F# me sideways!
And many other uses, these are off the top of my head...
Note: there are a whole lot of F# jobs out there. It's hard to find one thet is not.

While I was looking for a new employer over the last year, twice I was pitched jobs for Major League Baseball teams that needed F# developers. I did some research on it and found troves of data sets available spanning decades of time.
Now I know where all those worthless statistics come from when announcers are trying to find something interesting to say when there is a lull in the game.

Why F# though, versus C#? What does F# give MLB that C#/Java could not?

Well it's the functional aspect of it that, supposedly, makes it more useful for working with extremely large datasets.
