Spring is sprung, the grass is ris, I wonder where the crepeys is

[herbaceous]

As requested!

Yes Lalsy, I think DD is a worrier, and DS isn't.
I wasn't a worrier till she started having a crap time, coinciding with the peri-menopause. Though I am worrying much less now she is more settled.

Blimey, CV . Mmmm, head back in sand I think.

I am a worrier too. Exercise helps a lot.

And the cat has shat on the bed again. I am going to have to rehome it, or put it down. I can see her being picked quickly from rescue, and then going back a few weeks later when she does the same, then being rehomed...

Oh Mrs S, that's all you need. Perhaps rehomed to a home with outside life? Our kitten used to crap randomly until we gave her a magnet for the cat flap. Could be the kindest solution?

Flight delayed. Boo.
Sigh

Cackling joyfully at cv's 'imprint of a deceased bird on the kitchen window.'

Glad it's over Mrs S

I am working on hench. But can I ever be nang?

Sorry, but this is such a lovely entry from the Urban Dictionary:

nang
something that's cool

The word originated in Hackney, London. Specifically Kingsland Secondary School (now sadly gone).
The word is a direct product of one Nang Phan, an ex-student of KS. It came about through boys in years above her chiding "ahh, Nang you're nang". It caught on like wildfire from there.

by Nang's Best Friend August 11, 2003

CV, enjoy

MrsS, yuck - not what you need today.

Cremo, hope you are on the plane now.

TFIF, though I have had quite a quiet couple of days at work.
The builders next door have made quite a lot of progress on their extension - does feel slightly oppressive, but hopefully better when greenery finally grows over/infront of it

Herbs, DS has just confirmed that they don't use nang down here (thought I had never heard it before!) so Molly, you probably won't ever be nang

Dang...

I have no idea what all these words mean but then I am square and proud of it!

Mrs - she is is lovely puss but the continual crap would be too much. Rehome to somewhere with a garden.

Hope you have a rest & feel recovered enough to enjoy tomorrow MrsS.

Hatty, I doubt you would have heard of much of the yoofspeak from SE London over in Paris, square or not! It is a pretty local dialect, as the nang slang shows - only in Hackney, or so it seems! My DGodD who lives oop north has no clue what my two and their mates are on about when she comes to stay, despite being the same age as DD and not square

The main word of complaint with my Terrible Teens is 'long'. As in "miiiiissss, this project is bare loooooong.' I'm presuming they're not referring to its length.

Actually had quite a nice time with some of them today. Especially since one of the worst ones has been expelled for fighting [cats bum face]

Oh yes Herbs. It means it is going to take a bit of effort. I hear it from DD all the time

It's looooong. Though that doesn't rule it out being prestige.

Changed my mind.DD1 needs me to chat at

'Prestige'? Let me guess. Lame?

Very little teen slang here in MC Surrey, but the odd phrase comes to light. "Dead trim," anyone? Means bad haircut apparently.

Still have fights, though. Two girls in Y11 ran out of school at lunchtime yesterday and had a punch-up at the side of the A24 dual carriageway.

Finally in Eng, on way to gGGs manor to meet old flriends of late bro and mine from late 1980s era. Should be weird.
Dd has just informed me that she is in London this weekend too. Couldn't have planned that really. May see her, erm well -she's not falling over herself to meet up.
Wasn't there a 'peng' word at some point too ?
Nang and peng.. Hmm

Oh yes, peng! Though I haven't heard it much recently.

Glad you're here Cremo. Perhaps your DD would like to join us for a drink?

CV, glad to hear there are punch - ups in leafy Surrey

Peng and bare here. And looong but I thought that was just long made to scan with baaaare (usually followed by homework!). Dench and hench and peng too (wasn't sure what peng meant and I can't keep asking as sound like a high court judge, so thank you all!).

Welcome Crem!

Hang on, what does peng mean?

Peng is buff - the opposite of butters, innit?!

Peak is much used here.

I am trying to recall words do comes out with but two large glasses gphave addled my brain, but I think it's no different to my yoof.... (Which was a lot of astro-Caribbean type slang)...

Dead bearing up. Move on cards we hope. Meltdown coming I'm pretty sure. An evening of dancing round the elephant in the room...

Dead? Dad!
