Lord Noel & Lady Jacqueline Do Their Bit For Cultural Relations

Whatto! Peeps...

Whilst Lady Jacqueline and I were in town yesterday a young man approached us.... 
“Entschuldigung, koennen Sie Deutsch sprechen?” he asked. 
To which we just stared at him. 
“Excusez-moi, parlez vous Francais?” he tried. 
We continued to stare. 
“Parlare Italiano?” 
No response. 
“Hablan ustedes Espanol?” 
Still nothing. 
The chap walked orf, clearly disgusted with us both. 
Lady Jacqueline then said to me, “Y’know Lord Noel, maybe we should take the time to learn a foreign language.” 
“Why?” I replied... 
...“That chap knew four languages, and it didn’t do him any good.” 


Tallyho!
Best Wishes - Lord Noel
