Of course it is not called "the 'diff". My wife studied in Cardiff (rather than growing up there) and she doesn't recognise it either. She does call Caroline Street "chippy lane" which is obviously unacceptable, but i think we'd get divorced if she said "the 'diff".

I do think that both are different to "can I get", though. There are lots of examples of people twisting/americanising the English language, but they are different (and less offensive) than strangers renaming parts of our city for no good reason and with no basis.
Well, I likes it, I does...
