if you shouted your kids name down the bacon aisle

[ocd]

wodl poepe turn t heir head ans dhtink
"hat a twatty name"

i warn oyu i ahev been out

naw, but several boys might answer me as the names we picked somehow are really popular now!

how, what have you heard?

no..but have turned my head to other peoples names..pmsl

I think the more interesting question is, would you care?

I know this is a side issue but there's not really such a thing as a bacon aisle is there?

Dont think so - mine are Jonathan and Michael. Never shortened.

I think tone of voice helps too. Any name will sound twatty when shouted by an ugly old fish wife.... I call loudly - not shout

the aisle wher they sell bacon

I don't think anyone in the lentil aisle would turn there heads when I shout out my kids names.

oh coem on
" arychibald"

or whaever

i g heara mum in the books hsop today say" now what shall we get Maud"

i thoguth a new effin name fgs

Well, you wouldn't catch me and my glorious vegetarian family there in the first place of course

I shouldn't think they would .

Also, a head-turning name in Lidl might well go unnoticed in Waitrose and vice versa.

I shouted dd2 in the bacon aisle today

Mind you I used her nickname so if people thought it was her real name they would definitely apply the adjective "twatty"

Oh I love Maude... the worst one I ever heard was "Tiggy.....Antigone!"

Cod, I thought of you twice today - once walking along behind two teenagers and one said "oh god, I'm like, really, like, ocd, right?"

and once walking past a van, numberplate "ARF"

after all, Witrose has 'aspirational toiletries' LOL

Nope but they might think I was shouting at old men!

lol
did i ever tell you that finbar who has "conncetions at waitrose" told the peron in chage all about the asporational otileteires
she crinegd

she asi "what seems good on paper looks shite int he shop"

I don't think so

probably if we said her middle name, but not if we just used her first name!

(and I wouldnt care if they did, I'd just give em a lecture on why we chose it!)

really cod? Were my observations taken seriously by some bod in Waitrose. Coo Lummy Missus

I thought it was bloody funny!

oh yes
they emaield her the thread irrc

LAFGBWAO! (laff my fucking great big welsh ass off)

You have made my night!

I#d better take a picture before it gets taken away I supose!

REALLY cod?????
