I've just realised while writing this how hard it is to explain 'stick' without resorting to even more Brit slang. So if none of that makes any sense, apologies in advance! At least it'll give all those US'ns another opportunity to say how odd our English is ;-)

When I was in NY last December I tried to see the Producers on Broadway but ended up going to see Ask Jeeves instead Well, you try getting cancellations. Knowing the stories of P.G. Wodehouse well, I was in fits of laughter all of the way through but found that I was almost alone. Looking around there were looks of bafflement on most of the patrons' faces. They were obviously confused by all of the '20s Brit slang and upper-class behaviour, something which I take for granted. I was even more surprised to see so many leave during the interval.

Do the USn's really have a problem with European slang?? We're inundated with US and Oz TV shows so we have no problem understanding you.
