Silly exchange at work

The company I work for recently received an inquiry about the software package I mostly work with from the UK. I overheard the president talking with the lead programmer, and he referred to tonnes, VAT and some other terms/spelling unique. He joked about that maybe we should hire someone who spoke with a British accent. I jumped in that I could probably recite most Monty Python sketches from memory and that obviously years and years of nerddom might finally pay off.

I also recalled Scott Thompson’s (of Kids in the Hall) wonderful Queen Elizabeth character/impersonation, but I figured that bringing drag up might not go so well. ;) (And let’s face it, I am WAY too hairy to do drag. I am NOT prepared to sit in a vat of Nair, thankyouverymuch.)
