Pardon !

[Scrumpy]

Today I had a hospital appointment at ENT ..
 The doctor was checking my ears  along with my sinus problem..
She was asking me questions whilst wearing a mask ..
Not only that she spoke with a foreign accent..
 She asked me if I had trouble hearing..
I replied 'Only when someone is talking to me whilst wearing a mask'.. 
She saw the funny side of my remark.. She was a lovely person..

Scrumps,  exactly the same thing has happened to me -  twice.

An ENT consultant, foreign accent, and masked.   Must have been the same one you had! 
THe second time was one of my GP's.  I struggled to understand her through her mask when i sat in front of her,  but didn't stand a cat in hell's chance over the phone later.
