    'What's wrong with Swedish pastries,hm?' is what I think he said,but I was too busy avoiding the hastely flung kitchen implements to pay proper attention.

    'Whey di boidy-deshen svediborken chicky-kucken,bork?!'

    The above were his actual words.I've known SC for so long that I'm well versed in Svedenscheffiedershyfootenchickyspoikenbork.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Many Svedenscheffiedershyfootenchickyspoikenbork words have 'bork' or 'chicky' as a prefix,a suffix or are just simply bashed on the head and squashed in the middle.

    Of course, to ensure an adequate intake of oxygen during conversation, you could just call it Chefyakker for short. (After the local name for ex-pit villages dialect, pit yakker. Nobody can understand that, either)

    Oh woe is me, no NSD......forsooth it be a never-ending quest......

    You're right.Chefyakker is a lot easier to say than Svedenscheffiedershyfootenchickyspoikenbork.
    .
    I'll run it past him.

    I'd like to add that a much used phrase by Cheffie(which you might have come across) is 'borkborkchickybork'.It roughly means that he's in a good mood and is on a bit of a high. It's a Cheffie High Five and he's usually jumping up and down in excitement and rubbing his hands. :rotfl::rotfl:
    Oh woe is me, no NSD......forsooth it be a never-ending quest......

    Some weeks are like that. :mad:

    Scusi, mein Herr, but parlez vous Chefyakker? Never let it be said that the NSD gang are not a cosmopolitan lot....Edificated, that's what we is!
