Translation - RE: [Elecraft] Color code help?

[Darwin, Keith]

One of my favorites is car parts.  The hood is the bonnet.  The trunk is
the boot.  I think a fender is also different.

And of course UK women do not wear pants.

And don't ask for a bathroom.  Most public places in the UK don't have
them.

Just because they say "right" doesn't mean they think you are!

A lady in Wales said I looked shattered and wondered if I needed a kip.
Huh?


Yes, there is a difference between the English language and American and
it can make for some great fun when someone from one place visits the
other!

You Americans really need to talk proper English like what we do.
A flash is something that stays on for a uselessly short time and then
is expired.
We have torches... they go on and on and on and...
