Geoff There are a handful of minor cultural/linguistic differences between the U.S. and U.K. versions. For example, in the U.S., it's "jelly bread"; in the U.K., it's "jam bread". Etc.

The "bad word in the U.K. was "sod." (In the U.S., you can write "sod off" with impunity in a kids' book, because nobody knows what that phrase means. In the U.K., not so much.)

Sorry it took six months to answer this!
