So Australian lingo gets called strayan or strine.
No idea sorry what Canada language would be. Not French Canadian, English Canadian.
Haha! Yes, OK, it gets called English!!
Something always gets lost in translation, right Mike?
Some of you know, we are travelling to parts of Canada later this year.
Being disabled, I have a companion card that Via Rail will honour, so we are going to take them up on it.
When I rang about it, the bloke was so confused. Had no idea what I was on about!
After me badly explaining it's a plastic thing, like a drivers license for disabled people...
Oooooh! NOW he gets it.
I was saying 'card'. Kind of pronounced like 'cod' (I got that from the telly, listening to people say cape cod).
So I was saying cod not carrrd...you know??
How are we ever going to cope on our trip??
