    Oh yes, I remember now.

    The sentence ' every fortnight I eat sultanas ' which makes perfect sense here apparently is confusing to Americans on both counts.

    Not to those of us who have read a lot of Brit lit ;)

    In fact, that was responsible for me getting words like theater (theatre) wrong on spelling tests in primary school.
