Mmmm, pizza. 
Aye. I gave up on being consistent in spelling. Colour, honour and armour, but no tyres.

'nother fun thing: What the British call a "biscuit" is what Americans call a "cookie", but what Americans call "biscuit" is more akin to a British "scone". In general, American "scones" are hearty, while British "scones" are sweet.
In England, the floor above "ground floor" has number 1, in the US, it'd have number 2. An American "sherbet" is icecream, without the cream (from sorbet). English "sherbet" is the fizzy powder you find on, and inside, candy. And if you're in Turkey, you may order a "sherbet" if you're thirsty, because it's a drink there.
Talking with people is something only Americans do, British only talk to others.

Read this, and more, on the wikipedia page about American and British English differences.
