Hahaha ok Christie, help me think up some of our quaint expressions for Louise lol. I bet you,ve got a choice few, as your a scouser lol. Cripes and I,m an Essex gal, what a combination lol.
Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner with this Souxi - Sundays are usually not my best day for spending hours on the BBM forums and reading slash, worst luck!
Oh I can think of loads of "quaint" expressions, just got to get my thinking cap on. In Liverpool, the term "Queen" is used a lot as in "alright, Queen", a term of endearment to any female, but mainly for those over a certain age.
I'm actually not a scouser though, just to confuse you! I am from just outside Liverpool, but consider myself an honorary scouser, as I love this city so much. So I have lots of "northern" expressions that I can pass on to you
Has anyone heard of the expression "I've got to see a man about a dog"? My dad used to say this alot when I was growing up and I took it literally for years - until I found it usually meant he was going to the pub.
Or some people use it as a way of saying they are going to the loo (sorry, toilet). Dont ask me why.
I'll have to think of some more when my brain is in working order. You may be waiting a while then!
