    Must admit, I'm guilty of introducing Yam to the word "knackered"! She's said it a couple of times and I can't help but laugh as it sounds so funny with her accent. I feel bad though after as I have to reassure her that she said it perfectly well and in the right context, it just makes me smile when she says it!

    There it is! My contribution to the Filipino culture!
