    kicking off = starting up / get going - Also arguing or starting a fight

    Cheeky - going a bit too far with either humour or a request for something that might not be deserved. Two very different uses.

    Housing options? Never even heard this myself

    Mind - as in "mind yourself"? because this would be more like... "watch yourself"

    Not sure what relation meant/supposed are supposed to have either.

    • Mind as in, "mind you don't drive to fast down this road."cherub
    • Meant as in, "We were meant to stay at the pub until 1 but it closed early.". In American english we would say "supposed" right there, not meant.cherub
    • We might also say "mind you" as an alternative to "on the other hand" too :)kalkal
