On vacation in London, I toured Westminster Abbey—a beautiful and historic building. Two friendly guards outside the Abbey were chatting with each other and with tourists. I wanted to take a photo of the guards in front of the Abbey, but I figured I had better ask them for permission to do so.
“Could I take a picture of the Abbey with you two in it?” I asked. The guards chuckled and began to walk into the building.
“You said you wanted a picture of the Abbey with us in it!” they chortled. Ahh, British “humour.”
