I would say sorry my sister knocked your son arse up ( prince charles ) Never heard about through the media did you . Yes she actually did .OK quick version . Royal Edinburgh show ( i think ) Sister a BIL were guests ( he was at the time president of the wiltshire sheep association ) Anyways shes busting for a piss and takes off at this passage gets to the corner at the same time as him coming from the opposite direction and knocked him ass over tit . She gets hauled up by his bodyguards as she apologizing and sees who it is . Then goes on to say , oh shit its you , gotta go before i piss myself and he just laughed and nodded to the guards who let her go . A little later when meeting semi officially he asked her if she made it in time to which she replied yes while trying to disappear from the face of the earth . Shes an aussie btw not that that matters of course . By her and bils account he seemed to be quite ok with it , guess he was happy she didnt have a knife or something . Lots more to the story of course but that the readers digest version .
Lol....lost in translation. Here across the pond in the colonies the expression "knocked up" carries an entirely different connotation. Our colloquialism is a tad more bawdy.
Good! Good!
So i was not the only one who was confused. I felt really stupid yesterday, when i tried to explain to myself what does "my sister knocked your son arse up " mean, because my idea of -to knock up- is -to make a woman pregnant-
