As a "Limey" I've often wondered how you people saw the term "Yanks" as used during WW2 in the UK and up to to-day? Is/was it ok.
The saying I remember most was "the Yanks are, overpaid, oversexed and over here". They were definately the latter, we needed them! But the first two???
This is probably not PC and I hope no one takes it too seriously.
Colin.
