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.

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

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.

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.

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 🤣🤣

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!
