You know.....if this conversation were taking place in the average American fast food restaurant...we'd probably all have been asked to leave by this point

he he he - my bad I wondered how long it would be before one of our US cousins would bite

Now, I'm just going to puff on a fag.

Don't you just love how the same language can have so many different uses?

How true. I still remembered the expression on my classmate's face when I asked him if I could borrow his rubber (eraser) way back when.

Hi Ann, are you a British transplant to Canada then?

Hi Ann, are you a British transplant to Canada then?

Hmmm, my identity is somewhat confusing. I was from Hong Kong, which was a British colony before 1997, so my early education was British. My children think that I still have a bit of British accent, but my husband thinks that I am just speaking Hong Kong English. My spelling still retain mostly in the British way instead of the American way. To sum it up, I am a Chinese Canadian with a confusing past.

Fantastic! For what it's worth (probably nothing) I was a bit ashamed at the way our Government went about the handing back of HK to the Chinese and then depriving people of the chance to come and live in Britain (not unlike the current fiasco with the Gurhkas). It was our loss though - we missed the chance to welcome a lot of talented people to the UK (and I reckon you are one of those Ann)

I'm glad Canada welcomed you though. Two places I want to visit someday (Canada & HK)

Aw, thank you Yorkie. I would love to visit UK one of these day too. There is an article in our paper today featuring Northumberland......sound fasinating and beautiful, I would love to visit there in the future.

Speaking of Northumberland, Ann, did you see that story a short while ago about the Alberta tourism advert on TV that was filmed in Northumberland? A citizen of Calgary watched these lovely images of a family skipping along the beach and--surprise--applied a little logic to Alberta's geography, and...

Northumberland is -almost - as lovely as Yorkshire

Very nice part of the world; it has some great beaches, castles and of course Hadrian's wall. Definitely a place worth visiting.

#edit# forgot to include Lindisfarne in its list of treasures.

I will certainly add Yorkshire to my must visit list
I will let you know when that day arrives, Yorkie, and you must fill me in all the 'must do', 'must see' and 'must say' in order to be a real Yorkie .
