Pfft! Nursie is teaching the Norland Ninja Masterclasses.

Truth be told, I was loathe to part with her, but Henri d'Vac had a quiet word in my shell-like. His ready grin was wavering and his big eyes could not hide his anguish. Indeed, he was positively jaundiced with distress.

So, I sent Nursie away, for the greater good. Such special talents as were gifted to that woman deserve to be shared.

I am about to go out to play for the evening with friends. Have a happy and preptastic time. I am venturing into t'countryside so am taking a mac and a water bottle and the preptastic contents of my handbag. Some of which would not bare close scrutiny from Lauran Order, to be sure.

Au revoir, my blossoms, catch up tomoz.

:eek:No! Maryb GQ's nursie is to formidable to be let lose on kiddies, just think back to how much trouble she got up to when she escaped and took off to Austrialia to see Softstuff.:eek:

That's the fun of local diealcts Mila, each shire has their own language, my OH was born in Newcastle, so he call's friends 'pet', his dad was forever getting in trouble when he first met new women after his wife died and he like the look of someone, he would come out with 'by you are a bonnie lass', which up Newcastle means your very pretty, down here in darkest Derbyshire that same phrase means, my you are a big[fat] girl, so he use to get in trouble till either me or OH would translate, so one shires complement can be anothers insult.hth

My neighbours newly moved from London, once asked me " exactly how long is Direckly ?" And " does a Cornish minute have a comparable measure?"
It seems a new work mate had said they would "pop" in Direckly , but it had been two days!,

Prep stuff . Need to top up my cold meds and parectamol.
Plus I'm trying to put in my repeats a day or two early each time, to get a small stock .

I don't plan on going to any touristy places for the next few months, and I've been practicing the ancient art of Blanket fort building,, but a little to hot last few days ..

I'm loving all the different ways of saying and understanding phrases/greetings.

Direcky = after while as in We'll go to Walmart after while. Can also be said as 'in a little while'.(but not all over the US) I'm not sure how other regions say that.
Ey up me duck ...this whole duck thing just really tickles me!
Pet = a feeling too personal to use for friends. Usually for one's children or spouse. For a while here younger men would say bro.
Boult That's just hilarious. I'm sitting here thinking of the shocked looks that must been on a few women's faces! It's just so funny!

Correct. It's a state of partial arousal.
