Fan of Luke
Luke is really interesting and entertaining
good stuff. We are fans too :)
Luke Sir, you truly look amazing with the beard. I strongly advise you not to shave it off. Your overall appearance is much more striking with it on and it adds a certain dynamic to your presence. Trust me, keeping the beard will only enhance your look.
great grooming advice!
but he already did shave it clean. ahah
He said that his baby son liked his beard too much and specially to grab it.
Oh, sorry, I cannot agree with this. I definitely prefer him without beard - looks younger and fresh and full of clear energy!
As a big fan of both Luke and Alastair I absolutely enjoyed this funny and interesting conversation. 🙂
Very glad to hear it!

it's such an insightful interview! Now I knew a lot about France, Britain and even Japan and Italy :) Thanks a million!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just found this channel wow your content will help me a lot to learn English thank you for your content 🎉❤
Good to hear it!
This has been a really enjoyable time! You both are amazing. The conversation has been intellectual and deep. Thank you both for this great opportunity and pleasure of listening to you talking.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for your kind words Maria.
@@LeonardoEnglishCom ❤
Did he say at the beginning:
Luke, its an absolutly honor for you to be here 😂
I think he would say: It is a great honor to have you here.
But maybe I got it wrong, my English isn't that good 😉
Good question Sarah! Both are fine :)
@@LeonardoEnglishCom Thank you for your answer! I thought that in the first version, it was an honor for Luke to be here and in the second one, it‘s an honor for you that Luke is with you 😉
Very likeable episode! I've been following Luke for a long time and now, I've just discovered you 👍🏽
ah, I see what you mean. If the context was different, it could have meant that! But think of it as a shortened version of: "it's an absolute honour (for me) for you to be here"
I really liked it I laughed like a horse😂😂😂
Glad to hear it!
I'm from Russia. Lots of people leaving here enjoy complaining about our country. Watching video like that you realize how good your country is. We are polite on the road, in the metro we also stay on both sides and wait for.... And our temperature inside our house or flat is never less than 23-25 °C in cold seasons.
This video was amazed me, thanks a million for your work guys. ❤❤
From Russia with love. ☺☺
sounds like heaven :)
@@LeonardoEnglishCom Haha, not like that, we all have our pros and cons. 😊😊
Question: what’s the name of the southernmost “province” of England? Answer: France 🇫🇷. Question nr. 2: what’s the name of the northernmost “region” of France? Answer: England 🏴. I really think you’re ALMOST two different “Regions” of just one same country. And, certainly, I’m using the term “England”, and not Great Britain 🇬🇧 intentionally. I think I would even exclude the northernmost part of the country (England) in my definition. Very nice interview! Thanks a lot for sharing, Aleister!
Ha, that's a good one. Glad you enjoyed it, Jose.
@@LeonardoEnglishCom ❤️
Hope another episode you'll talk life in Malta and your living experience there
yes, we have one on that topic coming out on May 3rd :)
Marci
Petanque in Italian "gioco delle bocce" Is also popular in Italy regions Liguria Piemonte. Especially among elderly people but is still popular and many people enjoy this game as in France.
It is popular in Malta too, and called “bocci” there.
And petanca in Spain, very popular for elder people too
sounds traffic in Pairs is as bad as that in Shanghai
Bonjour, what’s the name of the standup comedian friend who does stand ups in both English and French?
Bonjour! His name is Paul Taylor - you can watch his stuff here ruclips.net/channel/UCd56yga015uI5hfOfnXdzCQ
So hot sweaty down here in India - I should be going to take an Albumin injection the day after in a missionary hospital
I may stand watching the entire city from the viewpost of the top floor
hmm....maybe?
One more dat with LEP
British people don’t care about living in flats covered with mold, as long as their windows look nice 😂
I’m English but please no draughty homes and no separate taps🚰 please
I am English too and I 100% agree :)
