Don't know about the pip pip. Might have been in vogue 50 or 60 years ago, or might just be a tv/movie thing.

Cheerio not used much except by older peeps, or in some small areas it might still remain. Cheers we use a lot, as thanks, or farewell, or as a toast.

'Gutted.' Anybody other than Brits use that? meaning -disappointed, or upset.
