I mentioned in a previous post that a Scotsman was joining my team of programmers. He started on Monday. In the twenty-five years that he has lived in the US, it seems that he has picked up several American habits; he pronounces the last letter of the alphabet as “zee” and the second letter of the Greek alphabet as “Bayter”.
I have no intention of going native in this way and intend to remain British through and through.
On an unrelated note here is a picture of me outside our new house.
