As English isn’t my native language I don’t get the pun. It must be a play on words, “up front” having more than one meaning, but I don’t know. Thanks for explaining it to me.
Whether English nor American is my native tongue. The difference between the two was best stated (I think) by Wnston S. Churchiill, who said, that Great Britain and the US were kept apart by a common language.
Andy diluted the two beers with four whiskeys…….Pretty funny one today, for a change. (Also pretty rare for Andy to be “honest”!)@beviekI didn’t see your Beatle’s tributes ’til too late to comment the other day, but I really liked them, especially the Fantastic Four and the Winnie the Pooh crowd!
I remember my visits to the States and being laughed at mercilessly due to my accent and the words I was using. I got them back by asking for a packet of cigarettes using the British slang " My mate here would like twenty fags please’ That was funny, the response was even better, though I do not remember the exact words myself and the cashier was laughing our socks off.
