US Arb guy New to UK Arb: I Need a UK Glossary!

Duds = breasts.

When you put your face cuts in for felling, we (UK) call it the "Gob", Gob is also used for 'mouth' so a bit Gobby is kind of talking out of turn.

 

In NZ the tree 'Gob' is called the 'Scarf', do you call it something else in the States?

Ahhh mate. I've just read you 'Moving from Seattle, WA, USA to E. Midlands, then along the M4 (Gloucs, Wilts, Somerset)'.

 

If you do end up moving down around gloucester area, you ain't gonna understand a thing in the most rural areas. I've lived in the Forest of dean for most of my life (moved from bedford when i was 3) and i still can't get to grips with the 'proper' foresters (4th generation+ locals). It's very much like 'ye olde' english

I've got the accent and hold my r's. But some of the stuff they come up with is just mind boggling. especially when drunk
