Good to see the 'body guard' getting stuck in like a good'un. And not worrying more about his bike than his charge.
Merde!
Nique ta mère may be what you seek, there are add-ons should that be too genteel.
'Va te faire eпculer' was what I was told to say, swearing in Italian is much better and generally more insulting when using 'mother' & 'whore' together!
ou mieux, 'va te faire foutre'... i would imagine poor old fromey has had enough of the old frenchies by now... he should have said to the viuex flic ' Je vous prie de m'excuser, Monsieur, mais j'en ai marre de votre putain de... pays/course/tour/paysants/population (delete as appropriate!)
you are right that in italian it is very expressive - 'figlio di putana' etc etc... but a simple 'vaffanculo' is enough
Fantastic guitarist
Oops, an embarassed cop is going to get a lot of stick for that
Is that an AG2R Soigneur trying to grab G ?????
No i think it's just some mouth breather posing as a fan waering AG2R kit. Hopefully Le plod will be feeling his collar and charging him with assault.
Potty mouth Froomedog!
Is it just me wanting it to be so or did Chris Froome come out with “Fuck you!” in his best ‘Allo ‘Allo! accent?
I suspect he had been speaking French but couldn't think of a better expletive in the heat of the moment.
Indeed. No matter how fluent one becomes in another language, in the heat of the moment, one will always revert to one's native lingo.
