Yanks Need Interpreters for British English
Can Yanks understand Brits?. In a previous game we used American English. Here we will use British expressions.

'Boardies' is Australian, not British. We say trunks. And 99 times out of a hundred, when you hear jam sandwich, people mean a sandwich. With jam in it.
P.S. Forderella, they call jelly jello.

If you look in wiktionary it says the following for jam sandwith (apart from the obvious meaning):
(UK, slang) (from the common UK colour scheme of white with a red reflective horizontal band) A police car.

One of the questions says "what is a jam sandwich?" so I clicked bread and jelly, but the answer says a police car! I don't think so!
NB if you call jam jelly, what the hell do you call jelly? Always wondered this.
