Sorry... more americans...
One of my mother's workmates (Phillipa) visited America. Whilst over there she was in conversation with some yank and the conversation went as follows...
Yank - So where do you come from?
Phillipa - England
Yank - Ah, That's in Europe isn't it? Which country does it border with?
Phillipa - Well... it doesn't really border with any European country... it's an island.
Yank - What do you mean?
Phillipa - An island... meaning that it's surrounded by the ocean.
Yank - Oh... *ponders for a moment* So how do you get off that then?
Nice...
