Amy's boo boo

I was speaking to my friend Amy who is working hard with her partner Richard (the Punk) to run a splendid new Bistro 'Les Bistro des Amis' at Fomperron, Deux-Sèvres.     They serve gorgeous food and have delighted customers French and English with their Fish 'n' Chip nights on Fridays.    
Anyway yesterday Amy was practising her french language as she took orders for Sunday roast dinner which included lovely roast beetroot.    She was trying to think of the words and told Madame they were serving 'roasted beet'.   At which point Madame chocked and spluttered going bright red in the face.... seems beet in French is something to do with the equivalent of 'dick' in english.... oops!
If you are ever in this area (near St Maixent L'Ecole) well worth a visit!
