English lesson

Following some inquiries (remarks), I'd like to explain the expression used earlier - feeling like a marionette (while running).

def: A marionette is a type of puppet with strings controlled by a puppeteer from above.
def : A puppet is a representational object, usually but not always depicting a human character, used in play or a presentation.



A marionette is Pinocchio, a puppet is Cookie Monster, for example. When I feel tired while running, I don't feel like the Cookie Monster but rather like Pinocchio, trying to articulate / move my body around...




Looking those pictures, I found this excellent costume...

My mistake !
Merci pour toutes ces précisions ! Je me coucherai moins bête ce soir (on ne verra pas beaucoup la différence me diras-tu...)

Perso, je pense qu'il a eu tout simplement un coup de chance le père Dave.
