Coco Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 [quote user="mascamps.com"]Just had a rather extended conversation in French with a Londoner before we realised that neither of us was French. At nearly 5 minutes, it's my personal best before the penny dropped. Has anyone beaten that?If nothing else, at least it shows that my French accent must sound more French than Brit now :) Arnold [/quote]I had a similar experience with an Irish lady a couple of years back Arnold. She had been married to a French guy for about 20 odd years. She had worked out that I wasn't French but thought that perhaps I was German or Dutch.

Richard and Alex Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 We occasionally get clients that think Leclerc is an electrical shop! But we had to laugh the other day when a guest from the West Country was very disappointed to find the "patisserie" didn't sell pasties! Shame, I could eat one right now.
