I’ve asked my friend to come to Paris with me in April. I want to go there for my birthday and, as both our birthdays are in the same week, I think it would be fun to go there together and have a double celebration. Double gateaux too! I’m not sure I can persuade him to come with me – he’s been to Paris before & is of the “been there, done that, why do I want to go again?” type. But I have made up my mind that I WILL go to Paris, even if I have to go alone, without him.
