So ...

[Colwyn]

I have got used to Australian sportspeople answering any question by beginning with "Yeah,No ...." or "Aw, look ...". I have dismissed this as some form of post-colonial congenital defect. But when did British people start using "So ..." to start off their answers? I have just heard one bloke being asked which welfare benefits would be capped. He said, "So. There are a large range of benefits affected and ......". Another, asked about Australia's chance of winning at Trent Bridge, said "So. There is still quite a lot of batting to come and .....". What will the weather be like this week? "So. We expect winds to turn Westerly on Monday and .....". What's the price of Efes in Calis? "So. It depends what bar you use and .....".

Stop bloody doing it! So there.

I find that people use it at the end of their sentences too so . . .

[KKOB]

You so 'n so.

I'm so loving this one...

[Highlander]

Almost as bad as people, particularily politicians, who start every answer with "Look...."

Look.   One of my pet hates is on the F1, any interview with anyone, British or otherwise alway contains the words 'for sure'.
For sure we are working hard. For sure the tyres let us down etc. So.  

[Scunner]

They like the word in Northern Ireland too, so they do.

[KKOB]

For sure, begorra.

My experience of Bristolians is the end every sentence with 'look'
