I would like to know what 'old trouble' and 'up the duff' means, to me it means that Jack is saying that he and Sam are engaged or that Sam's pregnant.

Sam's pregnant & they're getting married?

Hah, english isn't even my first language so I was a bit confused for a while. Luckily, having a good imagination got me through most of the cockney. I have no idea why they decided to go to Turgington Thrumpwell instead of Pratt's Bottom though.

Great idea for a fic! It always irritates me when everyone speaks perfect english even if they descended from cultures that hadn't even heard of england or the english language. Still, Stargate usually earns my forgiveness :) Would be fun with lots of subtitles and languageswitching though.

Keep up the good work!

LOL! Daft, but very amusing! I managed to follow the gist, even though I couldn't remember most of the phrases. Plates (of meat) = feet and I'm inordinately proud of myself for remembering that!

What a delight! Can't wait to share it with my UK friends. Love the American Express mini-kawoosh and the ending. Two thumbs up!
