Papertree St she said, I thought as I drove down the road for the umpteenth time, looking for the street. Why couldn't I find it?

I passed another st that had a name beginning with 'P'. I reversed slightly to get a better look.

Peppertree St, it was.

Accents are funny things. Next time, I'll get her to spell it for me instead.

RADs: I like to think not, but maybe that's just wishful thinking....

Aussie or gujju?

Lak: Me? Neither - if anything, my accent should be slightly kiwi only, which is distinctly differnt from aussie, altho it takes a while to tell the difference.

Nope, yours hasnt changed as far as I can tell... but then you were speaking to me (and vice versa). Chances are we speak more like the locals to be easily understood by them.
