what does it mean though?

Shut your mouth.

If you worked on this constuction site then you'd understand. I shouldn't need to speak their lingo. If I went to work in France then I should be able to speak their lingo.

Surely this is all the foreign language you need, courtesy of Dom Joly. . .

"I hate you, I hate your family, I hate your food, I hate your country, and I hate your face. . ."

Easy French to learn from a tape, too. . .

Surprised myself recently when chatting with a reasonably decent German girl at a party and dredging the depths of my A-level German memories and just about getting by. Well, getting by enough, anyway. Occasionally flick through Kicker and France Football magazines, can generally understand most of what they write. If only the GCSE and A-level exams were more about just football and less about writing political postcards to some imaginary pen-pal Franz. . .

My dad worked for British Rail and once got seconded to the London Underground to help with Summer leave cover. This was in the early seventies. A couple of hours into his first day in the LU ticket office at Kings Cross his boss got an irate call from the manager of Tooting Broadway tube station. He demanded that they stop issuing hundreds of tickets to Americans to Tooting Broadway cos they were severely pissed off at being misdirected. Turned out the yanks all wanted to go to the Tutankhamun Exhibition at the British Museum.
