: I'll be in London next month.
: You guys really say "fag" for cigarrette?
yes. :) 'bifter' is a northern term for a fag too, but i doubt you'll hear that. even up here people don't seem to use it much. i think Shaun Ryder does, though. :)
: I've watched enough Monty Python and Naked Chef, I think I know most of the lingo.
you've watched 'The Naked Chef'? more than once? i can't stand that wanker; Jamie Oliver gets on my tits. fucking arse. and even though i don't watch the show, i see him on fucking chat show things and on his stupid arsed adverts for Sainsbury's supermarkets. and one of those ads has music by Toploader too. *shudder*
'Monty Python', on the other hand, clearly rocked. :)
while over here, if you're in a hotel or wherever of a Friday night or late Saturday, i'd really recommend watching 'Spaced' on Channel 4. a fucking amazing sitcom, it is.
also, John Cleese presents a documentary called 'The Human Face' shown on bbc1 of a Wednesday. i saw the first tonight and, man, that guy is still very cool.
have a good holiday. :)
