"For my children...in ENGLAND!"

[ccga3359]

One of life's mysteries that I may never understand is why so many people who themselves know only English, and that often not well, seem to believe that anyone can understand English if it is spoken slowly enough and LOUDLY enough.

.

Ooops! I'm guilty of this when I visit the French parts of Canada throwing some French in for good measure. Whilst in Montreal getting a tattoo I was like "I would like my name, le nom tattouged on my, le wrist" I was fortunate that he did tattoo 'Grant' and not 'Le ^%$*&# Idiot'!

Speaking English in a French accent doesn't seem to work either .
