Erm... what does that mean? 
I have a friend who studied in the UK and he commented that they
are so polite and lovely to talk in that manner.
To me, gimme Ramsey's unaffected cussing anytime!

Which brings me to the point - people do change, sometimes,
extremely drastically! If my secondary schoolmates were to
see me now, they'd all drop dead like flies from shock, because I
used to be the prim and proper, polite, "most charming little young
Lady around" but now, I'm curt to the point of brutal, frank and
... well, luckily my internal dialogue is all hidden because it'll
sound very much like one of Ramsey's notorious outbursts!

Incidentally, since coming here, I tend love the working-class
British here, as well as migrants from America and the European
countries much more than the fair-dinkum Aussies. I
definitely love the Malaysians here as well, but the Singaporeans
aren't so welcoming and sometimes, amongst the Asian migrants,
there's this one-upmanship thing going on, which is tiresome.
