you may have occasion to ask a Londoner for directions to some of their famous tourist attractions..... (kudos to Dave Barry)
ME: Excuse me. Could you tell us how to get to Buckingham Palace?
BRITISH PERSON: Right. You go down this street here, then you nip up the wickershams.
ME: We should nip up the wickershams?
BRITISH PERSON: Right. Then you take your first left, then you just pop `round the gorn-and-scumbles, and, Jack`s a doughnut, there you are!
ME: Jack`s a DOUGHNUT?
BRITISH PERSON: Right.
