Hubby, grandbaby?

Also Maw how these are all in 'properties', never houses.

Indeed!

Oh yes 'properties', loathsome, pretentious nonsense. Our next door neighbours always refer to their small house and garden as 'our property', you'd think it was a mansion.

I like some of those programmes too
Maw but the commentary is so predictable and often pretentious.

When they were children, my younger son, aged about 6, answered the door to one of his older brother's friends, I use the word "friends" loosely because they regularly fell out. Anyway, little bruv aware of the strained relationship, said to the fairweather caller "he's not here, now please get off my property" not sure where he acquired such terminology, not from us, but it all sounded very "Southfork" at the time.

If someone says 'see you later', I often reply, 'you probably will', especially if it's the checkout person in the supermarket.

Nom nom makes me feel homicidal.

Me too Scribbles - I couldn't believe that a cook book was called "A pinch of Nom". I don't care how amazing the recipes are I am never going to buy a book with such an annoying title!

'One of the only...' is another bug bear of mine. It doesn't make sense. It's either 'the only' or one of only x/y/z.

I still don’t know what a lot of these things mean. Am I living a very sheltered life?

Play park is an area with swings etc for kiddies to play in.
Park is an area of grass, trees etc without those things.

'Put our own stamp on' a 'property' is such a tedious cliché.

I'm afraid I refer to my husband as my hubby and I call him 'Babe' (sorry) but I loathe fur babies, rainbow bridge, holibobs and grandbabies. I also can't stand hun, but I do call everyone Darling because I forget names so easily (yes I am that friend!) I also can't stand so when it's put before the answer to a question, i.e. "so I work in a bank" or "so I want to go to Spain" (on my holibobs) I've never been a fan of 24/7 or the word 'crate' used instead of 'create'.

When did boarding kennels or kennels become a pet hotel
Ohhh yuk a pet hotel for fur babies before they go over the rainbow blooming bridge Why can’t anyone call it was it is
Kennels, animals and death

Terribull I have a vision of your 6yo answering the door with a cocked rifle at the ready!

I use the word 'betimes', although not 'I prithee' I use it as short hand if I'm leaving home and am not sure when I will get back, but I will not be that late. I say 'see you betimes' as I leave the house.

Must admit I also cringe when I hear children referred as prince n princesses , don’t like the term other half . Can’t abide little dude.
