Time in Blighty is short now

Wow, I didn't think that could happen! I'm always taken for a Canadian. What's that about? Hope you have had a great trip despite the Americans!

I didn't think that could happen, either. The only way I can detect Canadians, and I've been taken as Canadian here too, is the way they pronounce out

I think I say out like an American! You need to practice your English, Alan! I'll work on my American for my trip later on!
