You matured at 40, Joe? I'm 66 and I'm nowhere being mature, and I LOVE it! When it comes to "cheap," I care not a jot. If I can buy a bottle of cheap wine that tastes good, gimme cheap every time. A rose by any other name... As for "Americanisms," most of them predate the alleged "British English" versions, and most of them make a damn sight more sense. I have to keep using the illogical British-English spellings and constructions as I'd seem to be a terrible pedant were I not to. I feel like I'm in a cage.
