                              'spot on'... not sure what direct translation is... Emma knows... something like 'right on' I think...
                              Also yesterday Emma 'sorted her brekkie' yesterday making her crustless quiche... translation... 'organized her breakfasts' for the week...
                              What is the usage for cheers? is that good bye? or time for another drink? or hi?

                                Liz, cheers covers a multitude of things.

                                Bye,
                                thanks,
                                said when two or more people are drinking

                                Personally I tend to use cheers for thanks!

                                (not really used for Hi though)
