Thanks Dooney.

I'm off to go paaaak my caaaah in the yaaaaad. (I can speak Boston, too. I once had a boyfriend from there, so I guess you could say I'm multi-lingual)

mananny · 23/07/2008 03:45

LMAO. Seriously it is a different language here. Did you see Gone Baby Gone? The townie accent in that movie is appalling. And The Depahted.

I do love it here though. As far as cities go, it's one of the nicer ones despite the accent, the drivers, the traffic, the lack of beer gardens and the idiot taxi drivers....

Oh Boston is fab, even if they speak funny.

Lmao at bumbag. The first time I heard fannypack in everyday conversation I snorted 7up out of my nose and gave myself a nosebleed.

I don't really know if that or fanny pack sounds better.

I'm off to have a cookie for dessert. Or better yet, how about these?

Dooney You are taunting me.

Did you make them? Or where you just showing the link? Because I still have the ingredients and the scars ...

I should have - I was joking about being

Tech, look what your fiddling made mananny do

OP posts:
dooneygirl · 23/07/2008 04:48

Why would I make them when I can go to the store and spend $1 for a bag???????????? You'd have to be crazy to make them yourself.

Hey Tech: buggar, bum, arse to you. (See, I can speak British too, if I want. (And they say Americans aren't bilingual)

I can go even ruder, but chose to hold back this time. Have to give myself room to work up for when it happens again)

UnderRated · 23/07/2008 04:56

Goodness, Dooney, you're feisty tonight!

If I try to make marshmallows again, I will hold you responsible. What else can I do with boxes of gelatin?

I used 'arse' when I played Boggle at the weekend. BF went but allowed it. Then 'arsed' but he wasn't convinced about 'arsey'

dooneygirl · 23/07/2008 04:59

I've been drinking. We had root beer floats tonight. Colin thought they were great, but kept calling them rhubarb.

I believe arse is a word. My spell check, however does not. In American, we pronounce it are-SEE. At least we do on the West Coast.

mananny · 23/07/2008 10:57

Good grief, tried to post a reply and then could not get any mumsnet pages to load for ages, so gave and went to bed!!!! Come back to find my reply posted 50 times LOL. Sorry everyone

Am still sniggering at fannypack. Its an unfortunate word.

UnderRated · 23/07/2008 18:08

lol mananny.

My mum is bring a Twirl Only 10 days to go...

OP posts:
mananny · 23/07/2008 19:04

OMG Twirls are delicious!!!! My lil sis brought over 6 large bags of maltesers for me 2 weeks ago. I have 3 left. I SWORE that I'd make them last 6 months. I have NO willpower and mucho stress. They'll not last the month.

UnderRated · 23/07/2008 20:01

If you're stressed, you need chocolate, mannany. It's not about lack of willpower

There is a question over whether my Twirl will make it here - mum already bought me some but ate them herself so had to replace them.

OP posts:
mananny · 24/07/2008 02:03

Ok now its down to 2 bags, but I did have help, my roommates chowed down on them too LOL.
