Pronounciations and Brit food...

I pronounced Salisbury as "Salzbury".  And the food as "Salzbury 
Steak."  

Then again, I'm from Ohio.  And it's pronounced "A-hi-ya" and I 
grew up in Scioto County and it's pronounced "Sigh-o-dah" and my 
nearest town was Portsmouth but we pronounced it "Portsmith".  
My home town is Wheelersburg but we just call it The Burg.   :-)

Anyway....

When I was in England my favorite food I had there was Shepherd's 
Pie.  YUM.  I had it in this little restaurant outside of Bath (or was it 
in Bath?....hmmmm) and it was DELICIOUS!  I've had it several 
times over here at different British pubs I've been to (Cat and Fiddle 
in Los Angeles has been the best so far) but none of them have 
come close to what it was like in England.  Yum yum yum....

I do remember having pizza once when I was there, too.  But it was 
at a Pizza Hut so....it wasn't that different.

The only thing I didn't like about the food in UK was the lack of ice 
in my drinks.   And at this one place I asked for iced tea and this 
woman looked at me like I asked her to do a strip tease for the 
table!

A lady came up to me on the street, pointed at 
my suede jacket and said, "Don't you know a cow 
was murdered for that jacket?" 
I said "I didn't know there were any witnesses. 
Now I'll have to kill you too."
