Thanks to you both. I really am most grateful for the help I get here and in the Deutches forum.
The suggestion about conjugation fits very well with another comment the author makes (in English) later in the book.
There is another sentence in the same passage I'd like help with
'Demander pardon pour Avoir Siffle comme un Gamin quelconque, Vouloir ne plus Oublier de Nettoyer mes Ongles, Essayer de ne pas tant Aimer les Poudings,'
I think I can decipher it, but would appreciate a proper translation.
