Do you Speak English?

Do You Speak English?

I am a fan of classical music, but there are limits...

I have just taken a call from a woman in Singapore; after a short struggle to understand each other she asked me if I could speak English.
“I am speaking English.” I replied. “Oh ok” she said and then put me on hold to “Ode to Joy” played on a xylophone.
After five minutes of this I put the phone down.
Life is too short to entertain such nonsense.
