And due to the way we confirmed to their rules, for example the ‘quiet hour’ at lunch, no washing on Sundays etc and just generally their lifestyle, now living back in England it really grinds me gears when people move here and don’t even try to conform in any way, you do see this a lot in the Muslim community.

Two things- 1) I am insanely envious (lol) as how quickly you pick up other languages. You truly have a gift. Second- I love how appreciative native speakers are when they hear you speak. While I'm not fluent in anything but English, learning a few key phrases and customs when traveling overseas, is just so appreciated by natives.
