English Terminology (Part I)

---

Learned a couple new words from a group I went out cycling with the other day:

Wood Butcher: A carpenter

I think this one was made up when we took the wrong turn while looking for the pub we were all to meet at...

Beer Hunter: One who hunts for a pub without a map.

Pint: Gives you energy to ride faster longer and gives you that "Liquid Courage". 1 Pint of Cider = 3 cans of American Beer. I underestimated the strength...don't drink and cycle.

Now I know I'm in England and they do speak English here, but some have a really strong accent, especially with some of the older crowd like the one I was out with, you don't understand a damn word they're saying. So just to be polite, when they laugh, I laugh too, but most of the time I'll have this "Curious" look on my face as I'm wondering "What are these people talking about and what country am I in again?"
