Some of those words look like ones we use over here, e.g.:
Blinkers - the head-thing worn by horses so they can only see forward; I believe the US term is 'blinders'.
Buggy - a term for what we also call a pushchair, a pram (dimunitive of the charming and archaic 'perambulator', would you believe) for toddlers. Stroller is also commonly used.
Chipped ham - looks to me what we call corned beef, or maybe even Spam or similar processed tinned meat.
Flip-flops - the minimalist footwear for beach use, essentially a sole with an attachment strap. Can also refer to a poloitician's opinions from one day to the next.
Gob - either the noun or verb for 'spit' or the slang term for the mouth (as in "shut yer gob!")
Pigs-in-a-blanket - sausage rolls? Or as Gambit says, bacon-wrapped sausages? Either that or a copper having a crafty nap.
Pop - either an uncommon term over here for a Dad or the soft, often fizzy, fruity drinks popular with children, teetotallers and designated drivers and served at alcohol prices in pubs.
How's come - either an inappropriate question for this part of the forum regarding the flavour and/or sensation of generational fluids, or another way of saying "how come" as in "why?"; "how did that come about?"
Tin-foil - yeah, we use that here too, some people apparently make hats from it.
Whenever - anytime; when convenient; in your own time; etc.
Yel'low - clearly not the colour, given the unexpected apostrophe, however it looks to me like the relatively-popular Homer Simpson neologism for answering the telephone; perhaps a corruption of "yeah, hello?" (I bet that's totally and hilariously wrong though!)
Babushka - not an English word nor commonly heard in my everyday experience, if at all, but I think it's more a East European/Russian term of affection for a baby or young child. Popularised by Kate Babushka.
Other words I've heard or at least heard of, but have never really known of any English equivalent, such as Hoagie (which I think may be a type of breaded snack akin to a sandwich), Kielbasa (no idea) or Punkin (which I believe is a variation of pumpkin, often used as a term of affection for a small child, usually a little girl).

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
