I scored a very respectable 0 out of 10. I'll put my teeth in, Pyjamas & slippers on & head to bed.

Nah gobbing up here is what you do when you constantly argue(with parents in particular) as in you are always gobbing off, my parents used to say it to me all the time.
Its all strange lingo anyway :p

Yeah, it means that too where I come from.

But if you spit then we'd say you've just gobbed

4/10 innit.

Hmmmm, I got 4/10. Got thrown off by 'gopping' which is UK navy-slang for disgusting! I'm quite sure teenagers outside London do not use a lot of that slang. I'd like a SW-slang test, sure I'd do much better on that!

I wonder what the 20 words are that they use all the time - yeah, no, but, what, whatever..... what else?

Yeah i noticed that ;)
i think every area has its own language at times.
I must admit when i hear a scouser or even a strong geordie accent then i need a translator to understand them.
I think we need a teenager translator too by the looks of things :D
