Hey Paul ( Marc26),
Don't you know..."the only stupid question, is the one that's not asked!"
"We", American's don't have a monopoly on this for sure!
read the thread...stupid questions/statements....
"yob's"...New term for me too, "mate"!
As Stevem say's (thanks Stevem), Aussie style... it means "an uncouth person".
The American dictionaries define "uncouth", as:
1. crude
2. unrefined
3. ungraceful
4. etc......
Now, no one could ever accuse any of our BM's, of fitting this description??? Right????
(another stupid question)
