  A French girl outside Buckingham Palace said:“I was so excited. I saw the Queen! She came out in a Rolls Royce. I've been interested in your royal family since I was a little girl. I've read all the stories, especially about Charles and Diana, in French newspapers and magazines. They tell me what your royal family really do. Your newspapers can't tell the truth about them!”

  An Italian boy, who was in Britain for the first time, talked about the weather. “I can' t understand it. I've been here for over a week, and I still haven' t seen any fog!”

  A Japanese student from Tokyo said:“I've been in Britain since April, and I' m living with a British family. I've noticed one big difference between British and Japanese families. British men do jobs like cooking, washing up and ironing. They're jobs which I've never seen Japanese men do. They think it' s women's work. But I don' t agree!”

  A German student, at a language school in Oxford said:“I thought Britain was a modern European country, you've been in the EEC for years now. So why do you still use miles, pints, and pounds, instead of kilometres, litres and kilos? And why do you still drive on the wrong side of the road?”

  A Danish girl in Brighton said:“I came to Britain a month ago. I've noticed one very strange thing here. After British people have washed the dishes, they never rinse(remove…with water) them. They just take them out of the dirty, soapy water and leave them to dry!”

  A Swedish girl said:“I've watched a lot of television since I arrived in Torquay two weeks ago. British television's wonderful! But the “programmes” which I've enjoyed most are the advertisements. They're very funny a very clever, or both. Back home in Sweden we don't have any TV advertisements at all!”

I help too-my friends at home would be very surprised if they could see me.
