Americans...absolute classic
A colleague is over in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on business. He's just sent me this...
True story, 5 minutes ago - Great conversation in the hotel bar with a chap asking the barman about a film on the TV, "how many films are there in this trilogy", barman replies "3", chap said "I thought there was only 2" barman says "you might be right". Could not believe it.
I think there is every chance they may be related.

I'm going to go for the latter. I suggested he ask them how many were in a 'sequel'.

Not just the Yanks......when Mum was a young lass, back in the olden days in Elland, Yorkshire, she was larking about with two mates, when a friend's Mum commented: "EEEEE, you three are a right pair"

I have been known to have a 'dull as dishwater' moment myself
Catching a coach back from Glasgow my mate and I got seperated, she calls across to me and says 'we are sitting next to identical twins' my dumbass reply was
'how do you know?'
I think the whole coach erupted into hysterics

Damn, us bankers are close by in Bourke Street. 500 to be precise. I dare say we can find a convenient place to debate BE, Melbourne and all things Scottish.

Will I be able to understand your accent ?
