Airport Selling

Posted by John on December 7, 2009 Post a Comment

I just approached a random couple at the Gate at the London Airport. I noticed them discussing something in the book after the wife handed it to the husband. So I just straight up asked the guy if they found an error. Turns out that there was wording in the book that confused them, not a typo. It was more of a misunderstanding of terminology. They are Brits and didn’t understand a reference to a “court” in the book. They eventually realized that the author was referring to a basketball court. I guess it’s also a cultural thing. Anyhow, the wife stuck the bookmark in her book.
