I learned a new word

| |

At work the other day my manager asked me to hand him a "plastah." I looked at him and said, "whhhattt?" "A plastah, can you get me one?" I looked at a co-worker and said, "what did he say?" She said, "plastah." "Ohh, plaster. What is that?" He went on to describe these:


Before moving to London, I knew that boot=trunk, lorry=truck, and lift=elevator, but plaster=band aid? I had no idea! Has anyone heard that before?
