calling netmums "nethuns" refers to the fact that they call each other hunny and whatever - I previously thought it meant "huns" as in the old derogatory British word for Germans and invaders Blush

30 years as a nurse,frequently using bum creams etc.It wasn't till recently that I saw a huge lorry with Anusol on the side that I actually 'got it'.All those years of saying An-you-sol.I really was a good nurse, just shit at not getting the obvious.

My DM thought, after years in Italy, that Parceline wasn't parcel-line but meant tiny parcels in Italian, pronounced par-che-lee-nay. Bless her.
