Is a fender a bumper and a windshield a windscreen? Jamaicans used to call them that.
That's correct Monrein. Pelagia deserts are also called puddings in the UK. There's also black pudding which you'd have with a fried English breakfast. It's dried pig's blood fried in a frying pan yum yum delicious. Twirl a we have jam roly poly pudding as a desert. It's a bit like a swiss roll with jam in the middle and you eat it with hot custard. By the way ladies if you ever come to the UK and your looking for a place to sit down don't go saying some thing like 'I think I'll sit on my Fanny!  |

You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those who they think can do nothing for them. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE SOOOOO TRUE!
