If we went to Rome together, people would certainly think you are far more English than I am.

I'm pretty sure you're English. I am not.
I get mistaken for being South African pretty regularly.

Looks like it! So now we have mandmc10, Ansbro81, jeancomp, sunny saver, pcrock, c-t, funthing, and me. Come and join the party Celini and valda

tempted but I finish work at 5 then would have to wait until the show starts, then its a 2hr 20 min show. Plus I've got A Comedy of Errors on Thursday which will be long

preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

Ha! Called an Arab, Mexican, Spanish and sometimes the fair few who actually get it right where I'm from.
Hardly consider any of them to be English. I may sound it but you look it.
I'm not sure how you or Celini can be mistaken from being German / French. You accent alone gives it away.
