What is a cuppa?

Sorry to hear your knee is hurting. I'll agree with you for healing in prayer.
A British cup a is a 'cup of' coffee or tea. Tea is also 'Rosie Lee' in Cockney rhyming slang. And stairs are 'apples and pears' boots are 'daisy roots'. My maternal grandad was a Cockney which is a person born in a particular area of London so I heard quite lot of it from my mum when I was growing up.

Pearl, I never interpret a cuppa as coffee, it’s always meant tea ! Lol

We have always used ‘ Chips ‘ but we also call chips ‘ fries ‘ since the fast food chains came over here.
I thought our crisps were your potato chips !?

I would have thought a cuppa was on super Mario. :D




That's Kopa lol :D Anyways, I figured that this could be a good point to make for the ladies topic since has anybody here seen and a fan of Doctor Who? I think I underestimated the Thirteenth Doctor because I actually really wound up liking her a lot. :D She has seemed to develop a lot of the mannerisms of the Tenth Doctor and purposely too. :D

I watched the clip, but didn't understand it at all. I've never seen Dr. Who before. Looks like it would be up my alley though. I didn't get a word he said though.

I'll have to look him up sometime. I am a big fan of avengers, but haven't got to have an action hero binge in a few years to check out a new one.




Well the current one isn't a he it's a she and that's the whole entire reason that I brought it up in the first place. Doctor Who is an alien time lord (or in this case lady) that travels through time in a phone booth (TARDIS) and regenerates into different people. :) This is pretty funny. :D (Btw the thing he uses at the end is a sonic screwdriver and Billie Piper played his love interest Rose Tyler. :) )
