You know what you're getting before you go in...no hang on, sorry, that's Holiday Inn.
Still and all, there is something familiar about it , made even better when someone calls you and says " See you at the Spur"
Which is exactly what My London Friend Mr Worrell Esq. did . Quite made my whole week.
Mr Worrell Esq, having been here for much much longer than me, is an expert in EVERYTHING English.
I really must avail myself of his help more often. I would have saved myself time and irritation if I had asked him what the English was for tin foil , ear buds and baby oil.
South African English has drifted quite far off the original!
