What I like about living abroad: 2

Walking into sports shops and asking if they sell cricket bats.


'Excuse me Sir, Where is your range of Cricket bats?'

'Er sorry, I don't understand you'

'Cricket bats. Cricket. Wickets, stumps, Silly Mid off, Leg before wicket, dig it in short, holed out to deep backward square, sledging, tea with the vicar.'

'Er yess. Let me get the manager'.
