    I think its can in Dub and Tin in the country. In my experience off course.


    You might want to get out a bit more in that case.

    Can*

    South African mate of mine says Tin.

    ffs nobody north of the false border says that.
    Cans of harp from the freestate,round Gundalk thanks :pac:

    I'm currently working in Belfast and I think they say tins, not sure though.

    One lad back home in Mullingar says tinnies but he always has to be different.

    First they came for the socialists...

    It's can as far as I'm concerned. I work in the industry ya know! :p

    The only time I've seen or heard the term 'tinnies' is on the packaging for the fosters 6 packs. It says "6 tinnies for E7". Makes me cringe every time I see it.

    They're only tins if you're an aussie, otherwise they're cans or canadians for short:D

    You do know they actually act as antennas for frequencies assigned to the government , it's like putting a satellite dish tuned to 1.3GHz on your head :eek:
