Greetings alexander!

 ak> I've somehow forgotten the difference when we use "everybody"
 ak> speaking in the US and British English.

 ak> IMHO it is the US variant:
 ak>      "Everybody comes here! Everybody comes to me! We'll go back!"

You've setup two variations that mean different things.

In the above, "Everybody comes here" or "to me" means that everybody goes
to or comes to the person making the statement. As in a business sense
where the only place to get a certain consumer item might indicate that no
one else has. "Everybody comes here to buy coffee beans."

 ak> This is British:
 ak>      "Everybody come here! Everybody come to me! We'll go back!"

In the 2nd variation; "Everybody come here!" or "to me!" is a request for
everyone to gather around the person saying "Everybody come here!"... Like
a football coach telling his squad of players to 'gather around'...

 ak> Or the second variant is good for both the US and the UK?

English is English, no matter where it is used.


    Have a day!
