Bill, I understand Americans quite perfect now but here I am complete lost. What an terrible british accent...

I didn´t understand one single plant he mentioned there. Ok.. Apple was clear to hear
Can you help ?
No worries, Brit was talking about some Myth that growing your own food is expensive. LOL Never heard that before, fella should head to Germany. I have seen so many Wild Gardens through out German forest. Even ones that are no longer taken care of still thrive.
You would not be the first person in Germany that does not understand them. I was a moderator on a Forum for EU Security & Defense; a real forum not this internet stuff. Its the big one every year inn Berlin.
One year a close mate of mine is also a Mod on the same forum, he is a Scott. Before the discussions started me and him and some other Mods where talking, one of the others was German out of Mainz, my mate would say something and she would be like what did he say, and then we would translate it into German. She says to me in front of him you can speak English, I understand English. I said I know, but it seems rather rude to translate english to english directly inn front of him. She says thats not english. I laughed a little and said has anyone seen the terrorist interview spoof online where the terrorist gets pissed because he has closed caption, but his arab mates do not.
I said just wait until this forum start; you will see 1200 people pick up their translator headsets to understand him, but it will be the native speaking english that will flip through the channels because English will not be translated into english, and only the few native speakers who one of the 22 other offered languages will just settle for another one.
So when it started, and my mate started talking, everyone started reaching. Man we are sitting center stage at the Congress building main hall in Berlin and I that German lady started laughing, it was over, I started laughing, rest of the mods knew what was up. President called for a fast break.
We walk off, decide who is going to give his address on his behalf, gather our selves and head back out to start again. It begins and this Russian MOD prick I normally can not stand, gets up about 12 row back and raises his hand. I said Sir have a seat, we will get to questions later. He speaks over me and says is he going to speaking again, what was that, was this some sort of joke.
Over, I had to take another break but this time a little longer.
