As far as "Yanks": I was thinking of an article in a UK airgun magazine. A group from England had attended a shoot in North Carolina, and enjoyed the hospitality: commenting that the Yanks really knew how to put on a party.

I found myself laughing as to whether some of these North Carolina "Rebs" might look askance at being called "Yanks"! Much as a visitor to Wales or Scotland might rankle some local people by calling them "English".
