I wondered how you knew all of those phrases, I thought you'd been watching 'Eastenders' on cable

Have you ever lived in England, or visited?

Both classics, I'm glad the humour translates.

I always think of John Cleese and his remark about the one day holiday called "Summer"

Never lived there, but I have visited before, I DO see why my family mostly moved stateside, it was rather rainy there.

I was coming to a stop in my week & 1/2 old 550 today and did not want to stall so I stepped on the clutch to pull it into neutral. The problem is that I no longer have a stick but a SAT. Has anyone else who's made the change accidentally done this??
I done it once on the 545... was sleepy and when I saw the red light instinct was to clutch it... the Cayman is a manual... so I got confused which car I was in.
