Reminds me of an old Mike Harding sketch:
"To lay the table" (placing dinner settings on a table "My God! Mind the knife drawer")
"To knock someone up" (practice in Lancashire of giving someone a wake-up call. "This yank couldn't believe me when I said we had professional knocker-uppers in Lacashire! Yeah, I said - if they stand on a fence they can reach the bedroom window!")
"To lose one's cherry" ("Dog's run off with it down the road, mate")
"A rubber" (trans : Eraser. "Used to give us one when we started school - had to last you four years, that did. Nice and big so you can write your name on it")
Red specs album. Still makes me giggle.

Pants.
US = long length leg garment worn on outside
UK = underwear - normally of an embarrassing type you don't want a new girlfriend to see you wearing.
or
UK = rubbish or bad. As in "that was a pants move to that bunker."

Fanny:
US, "Hey, lady shut up and sit on your Fanny!!!!"
UK, well the transaltion would be impossible anyway - it cannae be done! but roughly translated would be along the lines of "shut up and sit on your front bottom".

Fanny Pack
Fanny Pack in US= a bag worn on strap around the waist. (bum bag)
Fanny Pack in UK= a brown parcel arriving through the post with something you order from the back of a mens magazine, which takes batteries and is 'guarenteed' as good as the real thing. Allegedly
