Yes! That reminds me of my scottish boss a couple of years ago, he had only been in Australia for 2 years (I think), so he still had a really strong accent, and hearing him trying to talk in what he thought was an Aussie accent to say the phrases that we commonly use was always a hoot! Over here we say "no worries" a lot, in reply to being asked to do something, or well... a lot of other things really. and hearing him say that... always almost had me rolling on the ground.He taught me one of what we used to call his "Neilisms", which was "giving me the pants", which means something like, you are annoying me, over here we say "giving me the s#!ts". I think it's a great saying haha.
