Aha! "Whinger," eh? Why, you're not Amurrikan at all! I would hazard a guess that these etiquette tips are of transatlantic origin. "Whiner" is the term used hereabouts, "Guest." __________________________________
Excellent spot Carl - spot on! as we say transatlantic. I find W's comments about going mad in America really engaging. Try Blair's Britain. France I always find delightful, but transient Brits in France never have to deal with the day to day grind of life. There is only bad and less bad in the weird world of societies build mainly around profit seeking.
