Collected trip quotes, part 1

Sean: "How do you say 'Thank you' in this language?"
Aidan: "'Thank you'! They speak the same language we do!"

Sean, on seeing an add for a coffee shop called "Total Crepe": "Total creep?"

Alyssa, on seeing a human statue: "Whoa! That guy looks real!"
Jeff: "He is."

Alyn, overheard in Warwick Castle: "Oh, I love how people get beheaded in that movie!"

Quote from a boy climbing a large spiral staircase, to his brother up ahead of him, "Just think, James, one of these could break and we'd fall down and we'd die!"
His mother: "Just shout so your father and I could get out of the way."

Aidan and Andrew, walking through Stratford with bows and arrows: "We're midget hunting."

  1. Ben,

    Thanks again for your observations and comments! The "collected quotes" are entertaining. It's a good thing Aidan and Andrew didn't have their bows and arrows at the play. We can imagine what might have happened.
    Hey! It's the longest day of the year. How late does it stay light over/up there?
    Does everyone now know what the tube and a queue are?

  3. Bill, everybody knows their queus and the tube, but their favorite Britishism has to be the distinction between trousers and pants. Oh, and the fact that we name some of our people "Randy".

    And Katie, I'll pass the messages on to Carly.

    Happy Father's Day to all the dads!
