My first encounter, ever, with an American assuming everyone in the UK knows everybody else:
" Hey, I have relatives in the Cheshire/Manchester area and my cousing plays pipes for the queen there in Edinburgh. Sorry, dont find to many people from there. It would be neat if I found people that knew my relatives as well."
YOUR COUSIN PLAYS PIPES FOR THE QUEEN, IN EDINBURGH
oops, no, it's your cousing.
Suggested responses?
