Interesting questions. As Churchill said, the U.S. and the U.K. are "two

So help this American understand what you're talking about, please.
What is a breeze block? What is a rawlplug? What is polyfilla?

It's time to throw all their damned tea in the harbor again.

Breeze block is concrete building blocks, an alternative to clay bricks
(http://static.flickr.com/11/12792451_e0e15b63fb_m.jpg). A Rawlplug is a
plastic plug for insertion into a hole drilled in masonry to take screws
that form their own thread in the plastic
(http://www.tooled-up.com/artwork/ProdImage/TB29128.jpg). Polyfilla is a
powder that is mixed with water to fill holes and cracks in wood, plaster
etcetera, also comes as a ready mixed paste in a tub or tube. Can be sanded
smooth when dry, then painted.
