hmmm, I'm sure last time I saw you you just said 'NO KISSES'.

Hmmm, it must have been my Brut aftershave.

yeah, in the Loire Valley it's 4... Paris is only one, I think...

The trick is to play it by ear... if she's up for more, give her more!

Paris is usually 2 or 3, depending on degree of friendship and social circle.

You see, I knew it was the French to blame....

There was nothing wrong with 'one' on the cheek, now its a total mess and we dont know whether we're coming or going...

And what is it with the people who make a 'mmmwwaah' noise when they do it.....so irritating !
