Colourful

I was at the market early expecting it to be busy as it usually in summer but it was a little quieter given that yesterday was a bank holiday and some people are on their way home. I was back in time to play tennis against a young Italian. We had a good match. Given that his father is French, he speaks the language well so we communicated in that language until the very end when on the way home I said ciao and he said bye. He then spoke to me in very good English so I could have spoken to him in my native tongue all along. However I should really take every opportunity to speak French so that I can improve my fluency.
