    Le premier soir de notre arrivée, on a fait une bringue d'enfer (the first night we arrived, we had a hell of a party). On s'est levés le lendemain matin avec une méga gueule de bois. (We got up in the morning with a terrible hangover). Alors qu'on étaient en route pour la plage, ma caisse est tombée en panne (While driving to the beach my car broke down). J'ai appelé une dépanneuse et ça m'a coûté un bras. (I called a tow service and it cost me an arm*). Le même soir on s'est tous pointés au resto, mais la serveuse nous a pris la tête car on avait pas réservé, du coup on est allés becqueter au Mac do. (That same evening we all went to a restaurant, but the waitress pissed us off because we hadn't made a reservation, therefore we had dinner at the Mac Do.

    Source(s): *In colloquial French we say "it cost me an arm" ( not an arm and a leg, just an arm ) Bringue = Fête Caisse = Voiture On s'est pointés = Nous sommes allés Resto = Restaurant Nous a pris la tête = Nous a énervés Becqueter = manger F
