in thread Perl to convert US to UK punctuation/spelling?

I suspect that the areas where you have to stop and think are pretty much the same as those where I do, with references to various stereotypes (what is US English for "chav?"), local geography, slang, and food (what is "bubble and squeak", although I'm guessing UK English speakers get confused by "grinders").

    Idly browsing through this thread, I was reminded that the other week I was feeling pissed so I sat down in the middle of the pavement.

    Just as well I was in the UK.

    Nothing succeeds like a budgie with no teeth.
