English Accents

So.....I left off at Niagara Landing. After Niagara Landing we decided we wanted to go back to Viscera. This time for a beer tasting. But it was after six and most of he wineries close at 6. Caton decided to call and see if her cousin was still working. Unfortunately, she didn't know his name. So, in as professional a voice as she can muster - she calls the winery to inquire about his whereabouts.

Caton: Yes, I was wondering is the wine server with a Corona visor and curly hair still there?

Oh, he went home for the day. Ok. Thank You! Do you know his name.

Ashton. Ok, thank you very much.

As you can probably imagine, there's really no way you can make wine server in a corona visor sound professional

Then we decided to call again and see if they were stil open. For some reason Caton partakes an English Accent on this particular call.

Caton (in english accent the entire time) Yes, we were calling to inquire if your facility is still open for beer tasting.

Oh. it is. wonderful. Are you going to be open long? You see my friends and I are traveling from England so you can imagine that we wanted to try all the wine first but now we would like to do a beer tasting.

Oh! Perfect! You'll make sure that you stay open at least until we get there. Splendid! We'll be there in about 10 minutes.

Immediately after getting off the phone with the woman it dawns on us that they are now expecting a group of English Girls for a tasting. Caton, Kerri and I immediately start talking to each other in English accents. Kylie gets instantly entralled in the idea and begins to carry on a conversation about farmers with herself in an English accent. Katie refuses to participate and sits in the back seat randomly shouting I am American.

When we arrived for the beer tasting, fortunately we decided to disband the idea which was probably a good thing as it would have come off terribly. We sat and chatted with the beer server who proceeded to tell me how I should drink a beer every day once I get close to the end of my pregnancy because it helps with lactation. She then continues to tell us all about the really good beers she would by herself for the end of her pregnancy and how she would make her husband drink cheap beers and whenever he would try to take one of hers she would scold him saying, Don't touch that - It's for the baby!

I don't think I'm going to follow that advice.

Then we headed to Batavia to meet some friends for dinner at Tully's. Caton refused to eat saying that she couldn't afford the food calories because she needed to drink more. Then moments later when Andrew questioned her saying You're not eating because you don't want the calories??? She angrily accused him of calling her fat. Let's just say she had consumed a lot of alcohol that day.

Then the waitress didn't put the meal on seperate checks so Mike became everyone's hero by figuring out what each should pay.
