mick2me 3,033 Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Mothers were very good at abreviating things... "That'l Lern Ya!" The predicament you are in is a result of your own stupidity or lack of planning. Hopefully the outcome will education you and give you foresight to predict such an outcome in future. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

katyjay 5,090 Posted February 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Yep, bobbo's and dudoo's were in my vocabulary too, have no idea where either came from. Also, when I went for number 2's, I was having a 'bob', or bobbies [hope nobody's eating!] I'm sure there's a ton of Nottingham words we've forgotten about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

medusa 2 Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 my dad used to say rammel. if I was late home from a night out, my mum would say "yes, ya bu99er, where've ya bin till this time". There was a steep little alleyway at the top of our street which everyone called the "twitchell". But the funniest thing I remember, was when an Asian family moved into a house on our street. I was about 5. My dad told me they were indians - I thought he meant cowboys and indians, so I asked where they kept the bows and arrows. From that day on he called them the "navajo brown" family.
