me neither, had to look it up

And?

had to look it up last time, didnt check this time, think it meant things are going well

Peace out, mate!!!

over here we call gas (petrol)

oh THAT much I know...I ain't completely dumb...just slightly...

just testing ya darlin

and we call gas, gas

chips are chips, crisps are crisps, footpaths are footpaths, american english is very strange

Chips are french fries

Crisps are chips

Footpaths??? We don't use the word...however, it does exist in the language...hmmm...guess we call it a sidewalk??? Is that right???

yes, thats right..

See...I know some British...

I actually even know what soz means...but I mean...how do you take 5 letter word, abbreviate it to 3 letters and think you've done something worthwhile???

you know the words/phrases that count.. like poor

True...but the only one who uses it is you...and since you're NOT coming to Wembley...I will have no chance of having intelligent conversation including "poor" with anybody...

good point, well made

As usual...

BC1's right, I bet you're a pussycat in real life...

Not if I get you first, my record for hugging is 4 hours non-stop with the same person - and it's not my husband :shock:

That's blasphemy!! There's a huge difference between a chip and a french fry over here...

Unless you're talking about our financial status after we've been to the merchandise stands...

Sidewalks are pavements here!! Elevators are lifts and diapers are nappies but that one probably wont come up on your visit!!

Claire...just ask Andy...he did meet me...

BUT...it is very easy to imagine me...I am EXACTLY the same in real life as I am here...so all those formal reserved UKers that are so brave on line just look at me with those BIG eyes....

And apartments are flats...

I did study British English in school...in fact, I couldn't understand a word when I first came here and the only thing I've watched was Benny Hill show cause I understood it...it's a slang that I have no clue about...

elevators are escalators here

we used to have Marathons until some bright spark, thought we'll globally change it to the US name of Snickers.

I'm old , but can still remember

pants are underwear over here not trousers

I'm also like this in real life, not at all reserved, just ott (sometimes) but very genuine and a hell of a nice guy if i may be so blunt!!!
