Bob, must admit that Lambley has never been a favourite village of mine but it does have a couple of decent pubs.

Big Mac 12 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 My wife (like me, from Nottingham) uses the phrase regularly, although in South West Florida no-one apart from me knows what she means. Mother's has to be said as MOHTHERS NOT AS MUTHERS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
