We went to France recently with some Australian Friends - we were in the Narbonne area and we sent Allen in to see if a hotel had two rooms for the night. They did. The owner then asked "Anglaise" Firmly he replied "NO - Australian" To which she replied (without any prompting) "Ahhhh Australian - le petite Trumpet" using her fingers to indicate what she meant!!!

We nearly died laughing. She must have been around a bit me thinks!

I've had big, I've had small, I've had wide, I've had tall...

It's not how big it is, it's what you do with it that matters.
