Day 19: First day at school

I think my fellow language students think the BBC must be some kind of sweatshop. In our first Spanish lesson, we had to talk a little about where we were from and what we do. Unfortunately I demonstrated admirably why the English have such a great aptitude for learning foreign languages.

I ended up saying that I worked every day, including weekends, to collective gasps around the class, and I was then unable to correct myself.

If the licence fee is abolished, maybe it will prove prophetic.

THING I DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE TODAY:
South Americans find it really hard to say "Ian"
