I was interrupting. And then i would then id tell them i wasnt doing an english accent and they would laugh because i was a bit player. I have a problem here, because ive already lost. If i agree with him and im wrong and its wrong, that means you have won. But if i say i think its false, then youll only have half a win. [ laughter ] jimmy and is that a win for you .
