This is crazy! Just in trying to explain things I'm using words with different meanings, or that just have no meaning at all!! When I put 'hob' I wasn't too sure, but I couldn't think of a better word, I could have used stove.
And plaster is the stuff you put on walls over here too! I think of a bandage as material that you wrap tightly around, say an arm, when there's a fairly severe wound. A 'plaster' is what you'd put on a minor cut.
I think it's just never ending!! It's a wonder we ever understand each other.

PS We could start a whole new thread for this!
