||I think that use of  "guys" may be more of an Americanism. 
||At least, my
||wife and I had our British B&B host in stitches when we were
||visiting the UK
||a couple of years ago and we used the term that way.  For the
||next hour or
||so, he was walking around saying "hi, guys" and startling his
||other guests.
||Of course, he was a bit of a cut-up and could have been just
||joking with us.
