cheerio is a british term, although i haven't actually heard it used since my grandfather was still alive....
hmmm, random incidents...
there's one that happened recently to my step-father...

a couple of weeks ago he bought a new guitar (he's a musician and is pretty good at the guitar, he even makes them himself, but this one he bought... he wanted it for ages)
so... he bought the guitar, a pretty expensive one... £1100, dunno what that is in euros/dollars/yen and i can't be bothered converting right now... so after getting it home, he took it out of the case to try it out. he put it back in the case so he could go and get a drink, but he left the case open. when he got back with the drink, he tripped over one of the cats and then *CRACK*... he'd put his foot in the open guitar case, destroying his new £1100 guitar that he'd just bought.... ouch...
