Lingo - Last few


Recommended Posts

This will be my last Lingo posting, my memory has just about run out.

Its hard when you do not hear or use the lingo. Still, not bad considering I left the Medders in 1969!

Hi Hawarden,

There are many Hawarden's in the world, are you in the Hawarden that is in the Canterbury region of New Zealand South Island?

Correct ! - A small rural township, population 100 plus about 200,000 sheep, Corriedales mainly. 12,000 miles from dear Nottingham and the (Old) Medders!

See pic of my house in Hawarden and the flag, flown the day after returning from Melbourne after watching England retained The Ashes! Also, see name of my house . . .

decided to teach a Spanish pal Nottmese after he kept moaning about how thw Andaluccians murdered his language.

I began by writing down the word SARTLE, telling him I'd keep modifying it until he recognised it.

I then wrote SARTLISS. Nothing. I then wrote SARTLISSES. Nowt. I then wrote MOATISSARTLISSES and we finally got somewhere.

I think the next lesson was verbs, beginning with the verb TLET. As in TLETSHUN BOX.

Just a 'quicky' back at you Tom. When I worked in Ibiza my friend ''Shirley'' from Newcastle (Shirls me girls (If she should ever read this) bless her little soul) taught our Spanish work coleague (Pilli) to speak English.

It has to be one of the funniest things in the world , to hear a Spanish woman tell a rowdy British slob that if he doesn't stop messing around she was going to "Punch ya fuggin leights oot Marrah!!" in a real broad Geordie accent !!
