Are the silver tips all dented up, or are they just for show?

Automated translations come up with some real good ones some times. After moving to France and not knowing much French I needed to buy some logs for the wood burning stove, so needed to know what to say at the local garage (that sells logs). Apparently I asked (c/o Google) for some of their records to burn.

Lucky you asked with a foreign accent, or they would have really freaked out!

I've had some very bizarre looks some times in stores. I once bought 16 small fencing posts from the DIY store and the woman at the checkout asked me how many I'd got. My mind blanked for a moment. Then I remembered that French worked by saying 10 plus X. So instead of saying Seize I said "J'ai Dix-six." This got me a very strange look - I think I'd told her that I'd died! Anyway she came round and counted them for herself.
