What words or phrases have you noticed you don't use any more.

I said i had to go to the ATM at lunch time yesterday.
It occurred to me people used to refer to it as ' the hole in the wall' - well they did where I live.
I've not heard that expression in years!!!
Someone must have decided to stop using it!
I have also realised we don't say a child i with SEN is having a melt down but they are ' in crisis '

I find evolving language fascinating and like how things change and people adapt. It's not like there an announcement on News at 10 with clive Myrie telling us things like we don't use words like hole in the wall anymore! 😆

Shut your cake hole.

Ah, this reminds me of my dad! See also: calling someone a "git" or a "get" 😆

Speed bank instead of cash machine

I asked someone about 10 years ago if they ‘took switch’ instead of card. Switch had probably been defunct for 15 years.

I do!
