... my spanish 'student' (who is actually a highly educated middle aged woman) never, ever, ever says thank you?
i've been cooking for her for 2 weeks, i've done her laundry- which i dont have to do. i gave her a lift in to town today, but not one word of thanks.
now, i accept that the british over use 'tahank you', but surely some type of acknowledegment of the meal placed in front of you is universally good manners, no matter where you are from?
it's starting to really annoy me.
does she think that she doesnt ave to saying thankyou, because she's a paying guest??
