You Stupid #@$!In England, children are learning how to swear. What the #@%&? Aren't they learning enough of this #@&! on the street? I believe that the standards for streets smarts have really slipped over the years. Children should be learning their four letter words at the same place they learn about sex, on the street!

bloody awful. sorry. I was impressed on how english children were well spoken and did not need cussing as they could disarm the average yank with cogent dialouge and acerbic wit.

Slapper: a loose woman, tart, prostitute etc. Now commonly used (by both men & women) to refer to women who are none of the above.
clavdivs - you were watching "The Railway Children", right?

Thanks to the comics thread for this one: a usage of "slapper". You get the picture.
