So in french class this week we were doing an exercise on spotting the odd one out or 'l'intrus'. For example: which is the odd one out? plaire à ; aller bien à; déplaire à; or expliquer à?. On explaining what 'l'intrus' meant, le prof asked the class what was out of place in the classroom – quick as a flash one of the girls pointed at me and shouted 'Fiona!'.
Charming.
He'd meant himself (as the only male, a point he often refers to when highlighting diff grammar
points) and slightly nervously said 'yes, she is the only european, but that's not quite what I had in mind'. Not letting it go, one of the other girls suggested it was Waheta, the headscarf wearing muslim!
:-) Here's me thinking we're all the same really!
