Default English was I'm having new neighbour problems OT


You spell things differently, like humor, color and have things called faucets


OK, what's the British translation of faucet??? I'm used to bonnets and
pillar boxes and other arcana.

Could it be "tap"? Remember the old Tom Lehrer song, "Pollution"?
"Turn on your tap, and get hot and cold running crud."
