[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 1051778, member: 389824"] Never heard of that description for that thing in the US before. Maybe another case of words & phrases that have different meanings Trans-Atlantic, like the urban legends of the Scottish schoolteacher telling her American students to have their rubbers handy, or the young Irish man who is over in the States meeting his cousins there for the first time telling them that he needs to go outside to smoke a fag. Or in an incident which actually happened, Coca-Cola advertised their short-lived-on-shelves in the UK and monumental-PR-feck-up Dasani filtered tap water as being "spunky". :-rofl2 [/QUOTE]
