things i have noticed

Signals turn yellow both to warn of an impending red, but also to prepare you for the green.

People like to end their sentences with a "right?" or some other question, even though they are not looking for an answer or a confirmation.

You switch light switches down to turn them on.

Every bathroom or restroom sink I have seen operates with two faucets (they are called "taps" here). Hot and cold are separate. Why? No idea. What I do know is that it makes it very interesting to wash your face and/or shave.

Do not call them pants, for that is their way of saying underwear.

Scottish accents are quite cool, right?

My name is Rick, and thanks for reading.
