My dear Sir, As a keen reader of your posts, I was actually referring to your more than passing resemblance to the handsome young President of France.
I went to the same school as him in Paris - albeit not quite at the same time! - and, as the only qualified French interpreter in the East Australia Area, I was more than happy to be called on as the liaison officer for the visiting ships to which you refer in view of the excellent parties they held.
