There was an Aussie girl at my school and she called sweets 'lollies' which Americans would call candy I think. Candy can be chocolate though as well?
Mahk - I think the way US is portrayed is equally just as unrealistic. I watch shows like X-files, Supernatural, Medium, CSI and horror films a lot and it seems as if the US has an inordinate amount of serial killers. It seems as if there is one to every neighbourhood at least.
I always think when I watch US films that motels on highways seem the most dangerous place to stay - there always seems to be people on the run from the police there.
The only thing more dangerous than that is if you deviate from a normal road and go anywhere near a wood then there seems like you have every chance of running into a family of inbred hillbilly cannibals.
I would be too scared to go to US if it was anything like it is portrayed!
You say wholewheat bread instead of wholemeal.
