The Albanian, the Australian and the Turkish light

I had such a funny time with the lights I had bought in Turkey. I arrived at the house to find that the electrician was an Albanian with a very rudimentary grasp of the Greek language, and with no command of the English language. We had the funniest conversation with my very stilted and limited Greek. At one stage after I had been sitting around for a while I established that he had about 1 hour to go. So I told him I was going off to have a coffee - and he put in an order for a take-away....
Not exactly what I was telling him.
He did however get all the right lights in the right places and they look great.
