d00dz, we got a FLAT! Wootage. Thanks for the whuffles! It's pretty and has a huge kitchen and double-glazed windows and is the awesomeness! It's in Maryhill.

actually someone else got the magnificent gorgeous cat-worthy flat, we have a non-cat-able flat now. But it's still nice. And in a nicer area then the other flat!

sigh. want cats. ah well, yay flat anyway. it has a huge fancy kitchen and a bookshelf.

How nice to speak British English, so that when you say "I got a flat!" it's a good thing!

What do you call it when your car's tire is deflated?

Also, congratulations!

We say "I've got a puncture" or "I've got a flat tyre". We wouldn't say just "flat" on its own to mean a flat tyre.

I can't keep up. A friend of mine here in the States told me he got a flat and I said, "I didn't know you were apartment hunting." He wasn't, he was asking for help. Now you say you've got a flat and I think, "Always carry a jack and a spare tire." Or should I say "tyre"?

What Miko said.

Funny, Americans never talk about renting "a" flat, but we do talk about "two-flat" or "four-flat" buildings.
