I disagree with Ike on the "2 fisted" or "double fisting" American meaning. This always means loading up on drinks (usually beer, but sometimes liquor - or soda if joking). 1 beer in each hand as far as I can tell.
My experience is from Indy, Houston, Seattle and a buddy from NY. I've rarely run into someone who didn't know what you meant, and never someone who thought sex rather than drinking.
2 Fisted is the manly way to drink for chrissake!
BTW, expect restaurant help to SUCK and usually be rude. Although while in London we enjoyed the service at an Italian restaurant (food was great).
Also at a KFC a guy (not British) had no idea what I meant by "corn on the cob". Not sure what that was about.
Overall though, England rocks. Sarah and I love the place, especially London, and look forward to coming back some more. I love the trains and tubes, so easy to use and pretty convenient IMHO.
