That’s one vicious looking hovercar there on the right!

Mon aéroglisseur est plein d'anguilles.

“Mon aéroglisseur est plein d’anguilles.”

“My hovercar is full of eels!”

In English-speaking countries, they are called “elvers” or “glass eels”: in England they were a popular fried food until the early 90’s. The collapse of the fishing industry, however, has completely altered their value and they now cost as much as caviar!

(Sorry Rita...very rough translation leading to food slide!)
