Hello Neosi.

Glad to see you posting

Morning everyone.

Bit to much finlandia vodka last night.

Dark glasses, curtains shut.

We use it in the Midlands as a way to say oops sorry, my fault. But then again we use 'it's all gravy' to mean it's all good :rotfl:

Have heard the "it`s all gravy"(baby) saying and use it frequently myself, think that one i first heard on Big Brother a few years ago.

A quick Google reveals:

It means "my mistake" and was first heard around 1970.



"The first citation in print is C. Wielgus and A. Wolff’s, ’Back-in-your-face Guide to Pick-up Basketball’, 1986: ’My bad, an expression of contrition uttered after making a bad pass or missing an opponent.’"
.
"The phrase ’My bad’ came into widespread popular use in the mid to late-1990s in the USA via the 1995 movie “Clueless”. This starred Alicia Silverstone and contains what seems to have been the first use of the phrase in the mainstream media: "Cher swerves - to avoid killing a person on a bicycle. Cher: Whoops, my bad."

Just my opinion and haven't looked it up but possibly a contraction of "Am I bad"

Morning everybody.

My 1st crisis of the day is that my cheese mountain is just about gone. I have an entire empty shelf in the fridge. Don't I wish I'd ignored oh when the major glitch was on and got even more.

I haven't even looked at cheese offers for months so its going to be a shock having to figure out the best deals, calculating which cheese is under £5 a kg and/or suitable for an APG.

Also I hate the tea we are drinking, I think ts the pg evening, so I am going to splash out and get some yorkshire.

That's enough crisis for one day, if it gets no worse it will be a good day:T

I have been struggling to find mature cheddar under £5 kg. Sada have one listed at £3.13kg on MSM and .com but its an error. I went and checked on the counter in store and it is £6.25 kg. I thought about ordering a load on Sada.com but as their t's and c's say prices are a guide and will be charged at the instore price I figured it wouldn't work out. (It's West Country Mature so may be regional anyway).
If anyone can find a good cheese deal I would be very interested. We get through tons of the stuff.

I am from "up norff" n I have never heard of it before

I have, is it not from the tv as all the kids started saying it a few years back

Good to see you back, neosi. (hugs) Glad that it went as well as could be expected.

Use a net for your colour catcher next time or check your coloureds first. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Hmm feel a Bzz Agent comment coming on.. can i tell you about the 'wonders' of Vanish...:rotfl: Have fun.

Glad that you've drawn our attention to your sig. Problems may occur if you get too many pm's. Possibly set up a page like Mad did for his neice?

Hi. Could try ordering the cheese online and when its delivered or click and collected, can check the price on the receipt and if not 3.13kg can refuse it
