>> I say make the effort and do it yourself.

I did and when I could not make heads or tails of local expressions, I noted
that and asked for a clarification in a more standard form of language which
an American is more likey to comprehend.  That standard language does not
have to be an American version of English just a less colloquial version of
British English.  I am sure that Tony understood what I was saying and
asking for.

In point of fact, I would have take your statement "You're asking a brit to
translate into non-vanacular American-English !!!" as humorous and enjoyed
the humor of you had not followed up with the comments that you then made in
the tone that you made them.

>The correct word is not vanacular

I beg your pardon. Venacular is the correct word; the spelling was all that
was wrong.  So I will plead quilty to poor spelling.  And your knowledge and
understanding of English is incorrect if you confuse proper word choice with
proper spelling.

>Hey, I know this and english is not my first language!!!

Since we are being snide and picky, English is capialized and not lower
case.

Unlike you, when I made my comment to Tony it was not meant to be taken in
other than a light fashion as indicated by the smiley face; whereas I see no
such indication in your post so I have to assume you intended it to taken
seriously and as an affront.
