They say that if you drop the cutlery drawer on the kitchen floor you will hear every Chinese last name in the Hong Kong phone book...Geddit ?
Wee story:
My son used to stay in a flat rented to him by a Chinese family but the only telephone for the flat was in the downstairs lobby and the old Chinese father was always the one that got to the phone first when I used to ring up my boy. Talk about funny: The old guy couldn't speak a word of English yet he just HAD to answer the phone every time. He would answer with "HERROOO TEREFONNN" or something like that and that would be all we could get out of him until his son took the phone off him and apologised before going to get my boy to the phone. We often laugh when we see anyone go to answer the phone now as we all in the family immediately shout "HEROOO TEREFONN" ! ( It seemed funny at the time  ).

That made me laugh lots.

That would likely make me laugh quite as well, too. I tend to ignore my phone, not laugh at it! | | |
