The things people say

I forgot to mention this earlier. When we went to Mackies for lunch a very helpful chap served us who could speak English, excellent service, we were delighted.
As we left he called out to say goodbye, came over and asked us if we came from USA.
We replied that we were from England and he said ....... (you're gonna love this !)

"I'm from China"

Isn't that great, we held back the laughs until we got outside, it was funny, but he was so helpful, when we went the next day, he repeated our previous order verbatim. Wish I'd taken his picture to post.

Keep looking, afraid I don't get gems like that every day.

  1. Hi, sounds like the Chinese think you two are a bit of a novelty!
    Seems like you are eating a few McD's!
    Hope the lack of television isn't getting to you too much,not,that you are missing much on TV here.
