    "Poo is obviously a lot more acceptable to many people than excrement or faeces which may sound rather technical for such a familiar substance. But it is undeniably rather a silly word. English would have done much better to adopt the Scots word keech, altogether a more homely sounding word than excrement or faeces and, unlike poo, not sounding ridiculous.

    Note that the ch of keech is pronounced like the ch of loch.

    Just had an interesting phone convo, I am due a tax rebate right enough ( yay) but I may not be due to pay any extra National insurance ( I thought I was) ... apparently the two are calculated differently, Now I am going to think of it as I am due to pay it and if I am I will pay it between now and September, so will try and keep £150 put by for it as that would be the most I have to pay ( I think )

    any extra from the tax man will be for summer holidays or savings or mortgage etc ... what ever needs are needing met most urgently when the money comes in :)

    edited to add: lol Ed :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
