You’ll find Australia a mix of the two – with our own colloquialisms. Whatever you do, don’t say you’re rooting for anyone! Nobody is named Randy, nobody! And if they were, they’d change their name before they turned 10! Then there’s a dinky di, true blue, fair dinkum tinny when its hot. Its bonza!
- We brought high school groups to Europe for 30 years. On one occasion we’d spent two weeks in France and Belgium and arrived at our hotel for two nights in London on our way home. One young man remarked that at last we’d be in a place that spoke English. The woman at the desk winked at me and started talking in the broadest Cockney accent possible, slang and all.

So there was this crazy Canadian Gramma encouraging her Grandchild to fart
We were vacationing in England a few years ago and my husband did not want any beans with his breakfast…he told the waitress to please hold the beans. She started laughing hysterically. And finally said….”I’m so sorry, but of you’re holding the beans here, it means you’re holding a man’s private parts”. We still laugh about that!
