On a train -

American: "What do British people say for 'goodbye?'"
Me: "Err... goodbye."
American: "Really? Oh."
Me: "Are you looking for 'cheerio'?"
American: "YES! YES! Cheerio!"
Me: "Yes, er, thanks. Ta-ra."
(I get off the train)
Me: "Oh shit, I just said 'ta-ra'"

At dinner:

Seth's mum: "So, you must live in a much smaller house than this in England."

Seth's mum: "Can I get you guys drinks?
[to Seth] coffee?
[to Nate] coffee?
[to Seth's dad] coffee?
[to me] tea?"

Seth's mum: "Do you have pies in England?"
