Fascination in France

A conversation overheard between my mother and her aunt Claire:

Mum: I phoned Gary to tell him and he had sad news too, about Ricky. Do you remember Ricky?
Claire: No, I don't think so.
Mum: He's the one who jumped on the trampoline and shoved something up his —
Claire: Oh, yes, Ricky!

I'm sorry Claire interrupted, but then, the truth is probably duller than what we can imagine.
