Years ago when in France I was the best man at the wedding of my friend Yves Dominique Lefevre. On the day of his wedding he was very nervous; so to calm him down, before the ceremony in church, I took him to his favourite fast-food outlet for a quick snack.
He had frogs' legs, so he hopped all the way down the aisle to the front by the altar. He went at a snail's pace, but we got there at the end.
During the ceremony the priest asked him to say his vows.
He said "Y A E I O U ..."
"Why Y?" I asked him.
He replied "Why Y? Be cos eet eez a vow in la belle France. Zee vows ere are Y A E I O U ... n'est ce pas?"
The priest was exasperated. Which is an unusual name to have, even in France.
Can you imagine going through life as Father Exasperated, instead of being serene and humble.
Serene and Humble ... nice title for a TV Detective Series, don't you think?
Anyway, did you know in France they have extra bowels? Extra vowels too, it seems!
