Bangers and mash is easy to make Subtee - Bratwurst, mashed potato (a bit of butter), and onion gravy. For added delight, put some mashed swede into the mashed spud E

i did a google search on publican. was interesting, lol By the time of the Renaissance, the word "publican" meant a tavernkeeper (the licensed landlord of a public house), and by extension a slang term for a pimp. In England in the late 12th century there existed a religious sect called the publicani. Among their beliefs was the view that procreation was a sin.

That is interesting...(Missturbation, are you a British pimp? tee hee) I'm guessing the 12th century publicani uh, became extinct?

Aye,so's I took me 6 pence to the Mouser and got me a bird right for Plucken and I was right randy as I danced with her Midge. Right fine it was, I tell you now since you as close as me china, you are. Then she squirles two Fags from me and I never see her again. A Proper tossing for the cost of a couple fags. Best day of me life David best day of me life. There you go have fun with that one. I can make up more if you want. Steel

quote: ORIGINAL: subtee quote: ORIGINAL: beargonewild Then you got, bangers and mash! Not appetizing...is it good? Mmm I had these in an Irish pub in New York, served by a handsome young Irish man in a kilt, and it was divine....(the bangers and mash, that is). I was hesitant to try them but he convinced me (must've been the accent).

Me bessie girlie is from Liverpool. She kept us girls quite entertained with her "foreign language." Garden = yard Cooker (pronounced kooka) = oven She rhymed garage with "carriage" (like garriage) Gobsmacked (love that one) = taken aback wooly jumper = sweater dummy = paci (she was suckin' on 'er dummy)

As a young mum worked in a pub, here in australia, we had many from OS working there. The difference in 'English' as it's spoke between Aussies and Kiwis can be a little confusing then throw in a Brit, Yank Canadian and a South African, and it can be a real hoot as we tried to explain the differences. I remember an USA fellow asking for a couple of 'pictures' of beer. It took me a while to realise he actually said pitcher, a word not used in Oz, so I said 'ahh you mean you want two jugs of beer'. His face promptly went deep red. Later he explained what jugs meant in the US, they just mean a container for fluid, usually beer, water or milk to me. We also wear our cossies to have a swim, take a trip OS (OverSeas) before we go to Uni to get a degree, a jumper can be a kangaroo, our best mate is usually of the same gender, call a man a bastard and he's pleased, refer to someone as a bit of a bastard and that's a real insult! We pash our lovers, travel outback ... that's all i can come up with for now.

Got to hate the grockles. And the emetts of course. I do love a crisp sarnie. Or of course a chip buttie. Or a cob! WC is posh for bog, loo, lav or pisser. A girlfriend is a lover, not a friend. We dont have sidewalks or automobiles. Having a butchers or a shufti may not be what you think it is. If yer pissed, rat-arsed or sozzled, its all the same to me. If you're minging, mardy or a get, I wont like you. Tramps are not really bums, offer to show me a fanny-pack and I just might need to have words.

I actually understood a lot of that. Like, "a"..."is"..."sidewalks"..."is"...

I always thought it was spelled 'git'. Thanks to growing up with Monty Python and Dr Who, I am familiar with colloquialisms used in GB. Makes life much more interesting. I even know a wee bit of Aussie slang.

VeeeHickle ...where does that come from????? its a vee ickle, silent on the h, car, ride auto, all ok, but quit with the veeeehickle already(pet peeve) and its Herbs, not erbs Origano, not orrreganno Pub comes from public house(inn, tavern) where the owner resides in the house(open to the public for the consumption of vittles and various beverages, usually the alchoholic variety Bangers and mash are lovely, but cant stand the parsnip , turnip or other stuff, blech I love still, toad in the hole (sausages in batter base, like yorkshire pud with bangers) Faggots in gravy (mrs brains if you cant get home made) heheh emmets, locals complain about them every year, (little ants scurrying about) After 20 years I still ask where the loo is, altho I am getting better at asking for the washroom or bathroom, I still call em jumpers, or cardi's, woolies was a word my granny used, along with frock so I dont use those Curiously enough, I have never been able to get out of using, "taking the piss"...."extracting the urine",.... "taking the mickey" out of my vocabulary and its hard to explain to some the whys and history of the terms. so many differences , so many wonderful ways to say things, but you merrycans are a strange bunch:)just kiddin Oh I would kill for some clotted cream about now, I made some scones(pronounced skons according to my mum altho granny vehemently disagreed) and have some blackcurrant jam to go with.

Imagine my surprise when my college Brit girlfriend asked me to "knock me up in the morning, luv" . I thought we were spending money on the Pill precisely to prevent that action. E.
