Back in doodleville for all my sins. Jupiter Florida to be exact. I loved living in Ireland but it's just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too expensive unfortunately, from pints to houses they shaft you good-style. "Rip-off Republic" is the catch phrase over there, and it's very appropiate I'm afraid.
Nothing ventured nothing gained though, and at least I got to enjoy Eire for two years...got to see Cork win the all Ireland hurling and Munster win the Heineken Cup.

Welcome back. For what it's worth, I lived in Jupiter, Florida the first five years of my life.

looks like alot of these are UK terms though, i teach guitar to alot of younger kids so there for I am up on the slang, and most of them do not use these words.
-
8/10 watching all that bbcamerica and some good guessin :)
and welcome back although its a shame ireland didn't work out for you, as i know the education of the wee one was important to you..
-
4/10... :( and at least one of the words I got is not specifically teen slang, and is so commonplace as to barely even be slang anymore...
