None of your students picked up on the mistake though right?

Stephanie
Yes, they did. They couldn't wait to correct me.
I would just tell them that they are wrong I would teach in the States just to do this!!!

errr, yes quite obviously we are in the part of the world known as "Europe", however, all this european togetherness / community etc does not appeal to us. I am British, I always have been and will be, I am not a European just as someone from Canada isnt American - but they are still in the American continent

Humour, like in french, isn't it Goose ?
