During the few times that I visited Phil, I was never made to feel unconfortable.
Everyone, even the ones that did not speak english always tried to help.
Jet always translated for me, her father always took time to chat with me in English, and they all made me part of their daily chit chat.
I could see that I was the focus of conversation in most cases while I was there, but I was always included.
Sometime I was asked for my opinion in family matters, and it was readily accepted.
Even now, at home, if Jet chats with her family on YM, she always translates for me.
But if a certain lady from North Wales phones, they seem to gab for ages and I don't get a look in.....
It is ok with me, as I can concentrate on watching the "footie" without having to try to explain the offside rules......
