I just said "Sausages"

So, yeah...

I just said "Sausages" in the stupid, growly "That's Life" 'talking dog' voice (you'd have to be old to know what I'm talking about) to the Ocado delivery man, and now I can never order from Ocado again.

I don't know why I said it. I don't think I've ever said it out loud in my life before. I was about three when it was on TV and didn't even know I'd stored it in my brain.

I glanced in a bag and saw some sausages and it just came out.

Delivery man was quite young and fit and looked at me very briefly like I was mad. And then didn't react at all - which was worse. We both sort of pretended nothing happened.

"Sausages". In THAT voice.

Is there any other way to say/read it?! 😆

EndlesslyDistracted · 18/03/2024 17:54

I knew what you meant just from the thread title. Lucky you never get the same Ocado driver twice 😀

Awumminnscotland · 18/03/2024 17:54

Perfectly normal. No sausages eaten here without said voice.

Could you move house?

Glad to know I'm not the only person who'd make a fool of themself this way...

Gulbekian · 18/03/2024 17:57

I believe I may have found my tribe 😁.

Crying!

I think this was originally a bit before my time but I have seen that clip so many times in the 80s.
Brilliant.

Looking into it as we speak.

I am now torturing myself with trying to imagine what i would have looked like as I said it. You sort of have to contort your face and push into a double chin for it to sound right.

Brilliant.

Sitting on the sofa laughing out loud . Feel ill and has a crap day at work and now feel so much better . Love this thread !

Honestly? The Ocado man doesn't give a monkeys what you do as long as you don't keep him longer than he is meant to take. My Mum used to work in a supermarket - she said the general public were barking mad. Your sausages voice might be the most normal thing any of his customers have done today.

TheDogsMother · 18/03/2024 18:04

That's always how sausages is said here. Basil is said in the voice of Sybil Fawlty and olive oil in the voice of Popeye. Not to the Ocado man though 🤣🤣

Smokeysgirl · 18/03/2024 18:04

That is hilarious, I do that voice too. I'm 56 and used to beg to be allowed to stay up and watch That's Life, it was the highlight of Sunday nights!
