Two countries divided by a language
One of the Americans at the wedding last weekend was telling me about "going round Buckingham." It was only when she mentioned that she had to keep gasping for breath out of the windows (post hen night) that I realised that she was talking about Buckingham Palace.

I wouldn't have realised either. When I was over there a friend told me her husband was "pissed" and I got quite worried, thinking he was roaring drunk. She meant, of course that he was angry about something!
