I once caused a huge problem between our HQ and London office because I didn’t know that the brits use the verb "to table" differently than we do in the US.

US: Let’s table that for now = let’s postpone that

UK: Let’s table that = let’s talk about it and consider it

Huge mess

That's a typo. Should say Jabber in pants. Jabber is a traditional toast with beans, she got some in her pants and it's making a mess.

You're all fur coat and no trousers.

She totally wants to frick you
