Queen's English hits Canberra
YIC has arrived in Canberra to stay with his cousin Peter & Alison Miller and their family. Over breakfast this morning, he talked to their children Patrick, Tristan, and Natalie. They were having "yo!-gurt" (Aussie phonetic spelling) for breakfast. Readers will be relieved to hear that the Queen's English lives on, and YIC reassured them that it was pronounced "yog-ut". This caused much hilarity, and the children went on their way to school rejoicing at the joyous news.
