Boggle!

At work this morning, I had this conversation.

    Her: So, where did you go on vacation?

    Me: England!

    Her: Oh, England! Did you have a good time?

    Me: Yes, a great time. We spent four days in London and then we traveled around for four more days visiting friends. We had so much fun!

    Her: You know people there?

    Me: Yes, I lived in England for several years when I was a child.

    Her: So... what language do they speak over there?

    Me: !!!!! [speechless]

    Her: Do they speak French?

    Me: Um, no, they speak, you know, English.

    Her: Really?

    Me: Uh, yes.
And I'm thinking, what does she think we speak? And how is it not possible to know that people in England speak English?

It gave me a good laugh when I got back to my office, though.
