benjamin1945 16,139 Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Grandma,its more things you don't hear.............my many Grandkids all call me Granddad (to my face anyway) but none call the wife Grandma,..........its a combination of Nan,Nanny,Nanna ,Mamma,and for some odd reason Bim............i'm sure its common nowadays,suppose Grandma as connotations of being old........ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 10,094 Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Mams mam was Mammar and Dads mam was Nannar. No idea why, unless it's a regional thing, Mammar originated at Mansfield and Nannar from Carlton. I would have loved to be called Mammar but here in West-Mids even Nannar is unusual. My other options would be Nan or Nanny, so I am grateful to be Nannar! PS Chris is Gramps? Don't know who thought that one up? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I once won a fag from one of these "Win a cigarette" penny slots in Blackpool. It must have been in the machine for months, if not years....it was dry and stale. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
