understood it perfectly :-D I think we've been in that hotel

Our surname is difficult for non-westerners to pronounce (I don't mean that in a deroragatory way.... I can't say some of their names either!)..... so if we wanted to book a table in a restaurant we would use a first name

We often found us listed under Mr Roo

we're Aussies, but that's taking it a bit far

:-D

We saw a menu once, written in "English" (wish I'd stolen one) which had everyone at the table in hysterics....... poker-face waiter standing by........... I can only remember one item on the menu......... emenex.

:-D
