I suspect my neighbor is an anglophile. What should I do? She has
posters of Princess Di all OVER the place and constantly reads and re-reads ALLLL the princely gossip she can find.

She has a Union Jack in her window and drinks tea at all ungodly hours. She calls cookies "bisquits' and pronounces the 'h' in herb and her 'w's' sound like 'who'.

I am so concerned..... I'm beside myself. Some of the local ladies are starting to put their pinky up at the ODDEST times... I feel isolated, out of touch...

3. clearly suffering from Anglophilitis
Condition caused from excessive viewing of Four Weddings and a Funeral, Prime Suspect and every movie starring Helena Bonham Carter. Key presenting symptom, compulsive need to speak with a fake pretentious accent, Tina Turner and Kathleen Turner prove condition can be hereditory.

5. An Anglophile! Oh my!
Isn't there a registration for that? I think he neighbors deserve to know that she secretly pines for Prince Charles.
