What don't you get? It's just slang, no big idea here. What's to get? :confused:

American's don't seem to understand the New Zealand accent. They think we talk too fast!

Nobody in England says, "Bobbies". Certainly not in this century!

In Liverpool it's, "Scuffers"
Manchester, "Dibble"
Rumness for Police is, "Gavvers".

Unsure about elsewhere in England...

My dad's been here for like 30 years or something and he's still got an accent. It's a slightly diluted NZ accent, but it's still there. It really comes out after a few drinks and then nobody can understand him anyways. :laughing:

Haha, scuffers! I like that one. The police are called the screws here.

I shifted a fine beour the other night. I didn't get to flutter her box though.

I am indeed, Dublin born and bred. But I ain't never heard those ones. Course, I'm not down with the kids these days (not that I ever was...) :(
