Something a little lighter:

"How to manage in a foreign country"

C: *goes shopping with May's Danish payment card, Dankort*
C: "Dankort" *waves card in front of shop assistant.
Shop assistant, speaking Danish: "On the amount?"*
C: "DANKORT!" *waves card wildly*
Shop assistant says no more, but charges card the exact amount.

C comes back to May: "I paid with the card! Everything went fine, although she said something I didn't get."

------------------------
* With a Dankort, the amount is deducted immediately from your account. You can also withdraw money from the shops. This means that the shop assistant will always ask you if she should charge the card the exact amount or if you want money paid out.

Ha!


What language do you and C speak to each other?

We speak English. Well, 98% English and then sometimes when searching for a word, we might speak German. Also, C practises his Danish on me once in a while. :)

Cool! That's just like our EFTPOS cards over here in Oz.

Cool. I thought we were the only ones who had that type of card. :)
