Now for something completely different

The blog Catholic And Loving It! is a fun read. The blogger is a Catholic student in the UK which is another name for Great Britain which is another name for England. It's an old country so they have a lot of names. Fortunately, due to years of watching PBS Britcoms such as Are You Being Served?, Keeping Up Appearances and Monty Python, I am able to understand the exotic language on this blog. For example, "apologise" would mean apologize in American. Also "mum" would equal "mom" here. "Queue" would mean a line, or to line up. They should just use line because it is easier to spell. And "pub" means "bar". The "Super Monkey Ball 2" referred to is not familiar to me but I imagine it is like cricket, but with monkeys. With these translating skills of mine, perhaps I should be at the UN or ICEL.
