Picture the scene...........
Nervous as hell meeting the wife to be's relatives for the first time over from Hong Kong. Gran, Great Gran the whole tribe.
We were sat down to celebrate Chinese New Year with the traditional drinking of chinese teas on our knees round a small table.
I had been practising how to say "Happy New Year" in Chinese for days wanting to impress them........
What i actually said was "Happy Fanny"
I thought her Grandparents were going to have heart attacks right there in front of me..........
There was chinese tea being spat from mouths in amazement, people swallowing it the wrong way allsorts.........
Did i take the hint......
No i said it again about 3 times trying to get my pronounciaition spot on until the missus gave me the look all men recognise "Shut the F Up"
It wasn't until later she told me what i had said.............
Embarrasing????Hell yeah!!!!!
