Haven't you heard some of the way some people speak here?

They don't all speak like Sean Connery, and it's a good thing, because he sounds like a knob, anyhow.

I can't wait to see the back of this place, though.

expatinscotland · 25/01/2007 10:34

It's too Dickensonian, bourgeois and poncey.

nailpolish · 25/01/2007 10:35

ok

expatinscotland · 25/01/2007 10:38

I think Sean still has a place here, though.

Probably in the New Town somewhere.

Maybe next to Joke McConnell or that.

My work colleague says he's a wifebeater.

expat, offski?
are you heading off to your summerhouse w/ lump of local butter?

expatinscotland · 25/01/2007 10:40

If you had a summerhouse here, you'd be rich!

YOu could easily get £100,000 for it.

And then you could afford to buy a fridge for butter

nailpolish · 25/01/2007 10:41

expat

a summerhouse is shed with a window

suzycreamcheese · 25/01/2007 10:42

np i just said that!

Bugsy2 · 25/01/2007 10:43

I sound old fashioned posh - like newsreaders used to in the 1950s!
I always say "I beg your pardon" & never pardon.
I call the thing above the fireplace, the mantelshelf.

suzycreamcheese · 25/01/2007 10:43

oh and dont store butter in fridge, in butter dish spare in fridge..
got to be spreadable, but i hate the spreadable s they make...wary of that stuff..

CheesyFeet · 25/01/2007 10:44

Erm... I am slowly losing my Blackpool accent. Not very poncey but I am struggling to think of anything else.

Time to ponce up a bit methinks

suzycreamcheese · 25/01/2007 10:44

bugs
i call it the mantelpeice!
it is a mantelpeice, what on earth else could someone call it the shelf at the top of the fireplace..rolls off the tongue lol

expatinscotland · 25/01/2007 10:45

Yes, I know, NP. And that could go for a packet here!

Hence, the cartoon in the Evening News, with a wheelie bin with a sign on it reading 'Under Offer', and one councillor saying to another, 'Well, at least we got £100,000 for it.'

itsmeNDP · 25/01/2007 10:45

Ahem

I think both of you, suzy and np, will find that I was the first to put expat straight on the glazed shed issue

I have made individual mini gingerbread men (with fair traded ginger and organic butter and flour) for DD1 to give out in class instead of sweets on her birthday.

nailpolish · 25/01/2007 10:46

TinyGang · 25/01/2007 10:47

Awww MI that's so lovely though!

expatinscotland · 25/01/2007 10:48

Erm, yes, hence, 10.40 post followed by a .

As in, this is a joke that you can get a packet for summer house here.

tirnanog · 25/01/2007 10:48

Ah,I too call it a mantelshelf!

suzycreamcheese · 25/01/2007 10:53

ndp..guilty as charged at not reading thread properly m'lud
ten days in the conception threads, take her away...

WanderingTrolley · 25/01/2007 10:53

I put the recycling out in Ocado bags and recycle the Asda ones at Tesco.

I only buy white goods/kitchen appliances/computer stuff/mobile phones etc from John Lewis.

Sausages come from the butcher, not the supermarket.

I didn?t know until this thread you could get instant tea! The very idea!

I met a 19 year old who had never had an avocado and I judged her.
