Don’t be too hard on him, he’s American and probably wondering why there were no kangaroos in The Sound of Music.
So how do you “mistype” Germany when you mean Italy
Damned autocorrect

My SiL worked with an American who insisted Scotland was the capital of England, and they’d have to “agree to disagree”
My Mum thought the reason I used air con in my car instead of opening the windows was the terrible air pollution where I live. In rural Devon. The town she has been to.
Someone I know on a summer’s day chose a 10-12 mile diversion to a pub lunch as the car had 4 people in it and he was concerned about the lack of power getting up a 1/4 mile stretch of a 10% hill - odd
When I worked for Oracle in Sydney, we had a secondee from the US office (California), she used to sit next to me and had been with us for about 3mths, when she turned and said:

“I had a lot of back and forth on this with both CUBE and with lucy’s team”
He meant

Dare you to post that
More like…
“I had a lot of back and forth with Cube and Lucy and her team; and they told me to wait for the press release”
The back and forth could have been due to him posting that it was Cube two days before the official announcement and hastily removing…

Oh Carlos
Was I wrong though
Now Empfield is trying to put together a Canyon deal on NOS they can’t sell.
Dealing with Canyon, I hope he has an Italian translator.
