Limey to American Dictionary
Urbandicionary.com is a good site. It is there that I have learned the definitions of such words as:
Upper Decker- The act of defecating in the upper tank of the toilet. When the next poor unsuspecting person flushes the toilet they get a bowl of beef stew.
and where i found many synonyms for the word "Shocker":
two in the junk, one in the trunk; two in the snapper, one in the crapper; two in the crack whore, one in the backdoor; two in the bank, one in the stank; two in the soup, one in the poop; two in the hair pie, one in the brown eye; two in the clam, one in the ham; 2 in the beaver, 1 in the cleaver; goin to town with one in the brown.

I know some British slang. Picked most of it up from movies and video games.
Here are a few examples:
blaged = robbed
sixes and sevens = crazy
lorry = truck
boot = trunk (car trunk)
I also know some Irish slang. I found a website with all Irish slang-words, but I can't remember most of them.
Here are a few examples:
rashers = bacon
pissed = drunk (that goes for Ireland and England)
Edit: Just remembered that I know one thing in Gaelic. Pogue mahone, that's Gaelic for "kiss my arse."

Very very logical...

Blagged (not blaged) can mean robbed (nicked) but the more common modern usage would be to describe getting something for free, or using your skills to get something you shouldn't really have got. For instance:
"I blagged an extra meal off the air hostess."
"Don't listen to that bloke, he's just a blagger."
"I managed to blag the best seat on the bus."
At sixes and sevens. No idea where the expression actually comes from (http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-six1.htm apparently)
but it means confused, or at being at odds with someone, not crazy. For instance:
"When it came to deciding whether Lindsay Lohan's breasts were real, he was all at sixes and sevens."
"They were at sixes and sevens over whether Bush really was the stupidest world leader in history."
Lorry and (car)boot I'll give you, but they're not slang, you Yanks just chose to invent your own words for them for some reason. Rashers is a word used in Britain as well as Ireland, and it means a slice of bacon, rather than the bacon itself, so you'd say:
"I'll have three rashers of bacon please".
Since your nick is Sirloin, I assume you know about the popular English myth of the knighting of the beef:

Thus ends the English lesson for today.
