    Im going to ask what might seem like a stupid question :o but I really need to know the answer.

    What does 'Buff' mean? I don't mean as in a colour, or being a buff (enthusiast)....and certainly not any rude meaning it might have that Im not familiar with:eek:

    I mean as in a slang word that youngsters would use for something. My kids are taking the absolute pee out of me over this word and it's driving me mad. Someone put me out of my misery and tell me what it means please

    Also, in the buff = naked.

    Urgh, I'm dreading that bit when it comes around.
    I was at the bottom of a chain of 2 when I bought my house and I remember the last couple of weeks taking forever!
    Party with glitched wine when you've moved in? :D

    The house im in was a repo so no chain.I know now how easy we had it.
    I might have a marker pen party and draw all over the house before ds3:D

    I think its only about a fiver and its a standard bottle size - the latest aldi leaflet has a picture of it - have to dig it out of the paper recycling to double check.

    For that much its worth a try especially if you are cooking with it :)

    She doesn't cook with it she puts pepsi max in it and drinks it. It's her favourite tipple. I only get it when it's on offer or I have a conditional spend.

    This is the reason for my torment :o I was in As today and they had a big rack of T shirts reduced to £1 and £1.50. To be honest I didn't really look at them in too much detail. They were t shirts and they were cheap.

    When I got home my DD noticed this was a men's one. I said 'oh your dad won't wear that....I'll wear it in the garden ' I genuinely didn't know what Buff meant :o:o:o:o I thought it just meant a buff at something, as in being an enthusiast. Cue much laughter and strange comments from my kids......ah well at least they've had fun :mad::cool::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The little sods were telling me to wear to it to go out:eek:
