I love my friends in England and the UK.
Recently, my friend Suzie wrote on her FB wall, "aching all over and with a dicky tummy. (a very unwelcome) welcome back to the winter vomiting virus!"

some of my most enjoyable moments were listening to dx stations where the op's second language was English learned from someone with a cockney accent. So we're talking a very heavy original tongue accent (say French) AND the nominally spoken cockney English. It can be a riot.

All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
