Glad to be straightened out, Jeff. But even some of
you educated chaps
can be difficult for Yank ears to understand :)
ROFL.
Educated? Not sure I can claim that, I didn't finish High School.
The comprehension (or lack therof) is mutual.
Classic example is a US exchange student we had here in the 70's.
She was nearly ready to go home before many of us figured out her name was
"Carol" and not "Kerryl" which is how it sounded to us.
Cheers
