That's more on the funny side of things; by serious, I meant Defense

It would make serious amounts of dosh.

What's dosh?

Money.


I see from the groups you visit that they're heavily UK.

UK and international, now that you mention it. I hadn't really
thought about it before.

Looks like you're new to Usenet?


So, are you British, or what?

I'm been a natural born citizen of the United States of America. I
just read too much, a lot of it British. I also admire (formerly
Great) Britain greatly, but not blindly.

I'm American, so dosh might be some British slang I'm not familiar
with; or is it a misspelling?


<http://www.peak.org/~jeremy/dictionary/dictionary/dictionary.php?American=elcwhoef>

dosh (slang, noun) : cash, money.


Here are some other good American English words to search for in the
right hand column: suspenders, fanny, ***, knock up, vest, bonnet,
boot.

"Americans and the British are two people separated by a common
language."
