Israeli Otters
as promised....
A: That is Ray Liotta
S: What Israeli otter?
A: eh? That (pointing at advert on TV) is Ray Liotta
S: what? What Israeli otter?
A: (frowning) surely you mean who?
S: no I mean what, or perhaps where. why would I mean who?
A: that makes no sense.
S: no, you make no sense. what is an israeli otter?
A: aha! Not israeli otter, Ray Liotta. He's an actor. Y'know, he's in Goodfellas.
S: Who is Ray Liotta?
and so on. A bit daft maybe but at least we can now blame any future misunderstandings on those pesky israeli-otters.
I wonder if they have otters in Israel.

Uncanny!
Over a year later, but I had exactly the same, almost word for word, conversation last night.
So I've just looked up Israeli otters:
