We always had a Sixth Form May Ball, but by the time my brother graduated 2 years after me they’d taken to calling it “prom”. Unforgivable.

Lots of English people are saying mayonnaise instead of mayonnaise.

Pancakes being on breakfast menus and all. Pancakes are grim anyway.

I don’t know why I’m so Partridge about all of this, it properly bothers me. Maybe It’s to do with the Iraq war.

Totally agree but I think that’s down to a fundamental grammatical difference which I can’t see catching on here. Interestingly they don’t seem to talk about sport teams the same way, which seems inconsistent
