Sacks!

That was going to be my one and only word on the subject but the powers that be said the message was too short!

Honeybun, try saying sacks in an upper crust accent.

Morning all, thanks once again for your continued kind thoughts.

We are arranging the wake and have managed to organise it in the pub that my auntie and uncle used to own, where my dad did a lot of his youthful (and adult) drinking and where my mum and dad met. I am ridiculously happy that we thought of this... It is so appropriate. When auntie left the pub about 25 years ago, I said I'd never go back (auntie and uncle had no children and It became my second home) but this feels so right. OH is cautioning that it won't be the same but I know that.

The funeral directors asked if there's somewhere dad would have liked his courtege to stop on the way to the crem - I said what about every pub in the town he grew up in :rotfl:

Oh my goodness, what has been going on here????? afraid I say sex in an upper class voice when I am pushed!!

Feeling better today thank you, a decent nights sleep and we have brekkie in bed on Sundays, so we were late getting up. Hester....nothing to do with brides nighties or w***** knickers.!! My grandmother used to say fur coat....no drawers, must have applied to her, she always wore a fur coat in the winter!! Mind you in her latter years she wore those lock knit, bubble gum pink, elastic round the knees, knickers, when the were drying on the line and the wind got in the they looked like a sail on a ship!!

OK I am going now.................

Same here Deleted_User. My Mam used to say 'she's all fur coat and no knickers' but for her it meant that the person thought better of themselves than they actually were. It was Mam's most derogatory term for a woman but it was more about her attitude and personality than her sexual prowess.

Has anyone heard from Polly at all. I haven't seen her for a wee while.

That's true, she hasn't been posting! I hope she and her DD are ok.
