Les Couilles du Chien

Yesterday I was in near Portobello, and I found this little shop selling antique stuffs which has the funniest name ever!! 'Les couilles du chien' = literally 'The dog's balls'

Loved it.. So delicate... And I still cannot see why they are called like that!

    The 'dog's bollocks' is an English saying that loosely means 'excellent'.

    Request for registering eCurator

    Dear Arthur,

    Hello, this is Tomo.
    I'm 1st year student in UCLA located at Los Angeles.

    We will start a web service, called "eCurator" from 3rd August.
    eCurator is a web-based platform that connects overseas travelers to local residents in the area they are traveling to help provide travel advice and recommendations.

    I moved to LA in last August to study at UCLA.
    Thanks to the advice from people who have lived in LA for a long time, my life in LA has become colorful.
    So, I came to think that if local people provide travelers with their experience, their travels become more fun and something unique.

    You put out the useful information about your living city on your blog.
    So, could you talk to taravelers and share them with your local experience?
    In return for your kindness, travelers will pay you $6.5 for 30 minites conversation as a gratitude through our website.
    Our concept is that local residents can earn some money which allows them to buy Starbucks Latte and Scone if they talked to prospect travelers.

    If you are interested in this service, please access the link below.
    It explains the detail of eCurator and contains contact info.

    Hope you will share your special experience with travelers

    Best Regards,

    Tomo

    Hi!

    I’m working for TV production company Twofour and looking for French people living in the UK to take part in a new programme I’m making for MTV.

    I saw your blog and thought you might be interested! I’d love to give you a call to explain a little more about the show and find out a little more about you.

    I’m on 02074381903. Or alternatively let me know your number and a good time to call!

    Best,
    Rachel Metcalfe
