I usually make crepe-like pancakes also. I know how to make the light fluffy US ones too. They're just different. I also roll mine, usually sprinkle them witrh sugar and lemon juice. It tastes yummy.
One of the best pancake recipes I've had was from Jamie Oliver, it was almost an omelette type pancake but really tasty. Here's the recipe:

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
