Calling cigarettes fags is hilarious when there are non Brits around. We love to say, hey, you want a fag? Or you look like you could do with a fag - it is the gift that keeps on giving.
We also call them snouts which baffles many a tourist.
Better let that dude on the phone!!
Burkas are wild, I can't help feel it's oppression. But you never know, maybe the wearers pretend to be ninjas in their heads :0D
Snouts? Really?? Over here snouts are pigs.
All the sayings
dudechap, it took us a minute but thankfully it's English so I could 'what?' ' Say again please?' "Can't be bothered" is one, just typing it is funny. Or "watcha make of it?" Which meant what time is it or something odd.When we toured through UK though, if I'm being honest <--that's another one, you Scott's were much tougher to understand. South England the easiest.. get toward Liverpool and north, tougher. You guys though—real tough. I was "say again please" much more often but we sure as fuck curse the same ya cunt!!
Hahahahha, yes, when we let go and relax people do struggle to understand us. When we try though we become quite legible. Almost fully :OD
Sounds like you had a right good old tour of the place!
Miss it every day man. We never anticipated being forced to leave in such dramatic fashion. We were enjoying traveliving.
My wife's British but the hoops to jump through during Covid to get my citizenship started ceased completely—get the bloody hell out DanDays! Waited til the last day, Aug 2, no dice. First Brexit and then, well.. this.
It has all gone a bit tits up these days. The Brexit thing, the COVID madness. Tis a shame, could have caught up at a UK meetup!! When they start again that is. When anything starts again!
It's a date!
Hey google, add that date to my calendar!
Dont tell anyone I let google run my life, Its not cool to say these things on the blockchain. Down with GOOGLE!
So long as you don't tell anyone the secret to searching a date night pub: airy, sunny, bar.
Viola!
