Rubbish- Trash
Bright spells/sunny spells- sun shining
First floor- 2nd floor
Biscuit-cookie
Car park- parking lot
Nappy-diaper
Ladybird-ladybug
Hen night- bachlorette party
To let- for rent
snooker-pool
is the storm on or off?

ReplyDeleteSo why is the 1st floor the 2nd floor?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea! The person at the hostel told me my room was on the first floor and then pointed me up the stairwell. And that's what people say on campus too. It's odd.
ReplyDeleteI suppose a bachelor party would be a rooster night, then...?
ReplyDeleteI think it's actually called stag night...but good try, Eddie.
ReplyDelete1st floor = 2nd floor... FAVORITE, haha.
