Robin, June, and a Spanish Waiter

My wife June and I have been married for over 40 years, and spent the first 9 years working and living in Holland. In 1973 we took a package holiday to Spain from Holland. The hotel in Benidorm was full of Dutch and German visitors, and at beakfast, the waiter struck up a conversation with us. I can assure you the following is true, even if I cannot remember the conversation precisely: Waiter: "you are eengleesh I think ?" Robin: "yes, sorry about that." Waiter: "I know England: where in England you come from?" Robin: "You would not know it: a small town called Wokingham, maybe 30 miles west of London." Waiter: "I know Wokingham: where in Wokingham you live ?" Robin: "You would not know it: Luckley Road, about a mile south of the town." Waiter: "I know Luckly Road: where in Luckley Road you live?" Robin (already having doubts about this waiter): "Number 45, near the rail bridge". Waiter: "I know where: I worked in kitchen in school behind you." That's when I realized it was genuine: There was a private girls school behind us, and my mother also worked for a brief time in the kitchens there - but probably not in the same period as the waiter: that WOULD have been a coincidence! :-) We are very relaxed about our names and details being public, since they already are on our family and business site www.gpss.co.uk We heard the Professor on Radio 4 this morning, so decided to share this with you.
