Over here it's very common for men to call each other "mate", or "bro".

I can't think of anything else offhand.
Yes, English guys say 'bro' too! And the huggy kissy thing can get a bit much! If I go to the kids school it can take HOURS! And sometimes it's not very pleasant with all the garlic they eat! AND some of the old crusty country guys try to get a BIT closer to your lips than is completely necessary - yuch!!! :?
