    I was visiting a bank in the Philippines last year, and while over in the UK the sign say "Please Queue here", in the Philippines you "Fall in Line"....was very tempted to try it see the reaction...:D

    The "It's raining cats and dogs" quote....a long time ago, houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all the cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof. Hence the saying It's raining cats and dogs.;)

    My nan was at the chemist picking up some medicine a few years ago. But wanted to get some batteries while she was there. Why oh why I went with her I'll never know...

    Nan: Hello dear can I have some Durex please
    Staff: Uhhh
    Me: Uhh nan, are you sure...
    Nan: Course I am dear, I need some of the extra strong ones!
    Staff: O.k, here you go *puts on counter*
    Nan: *horrified look*

    At this point I didnt know whether to die of embarassment or laughter, lol.
