Fair play. I LOL'd.
Used to know a guy who thought a certain food item was called spastic chicken.
So, on the subject.... when I was a kid, I used to tell the barber to trim my 'sideboards'.Quote:

Sadly to say many years ago in the grape and olive in Alensbank Road i ordered a pint of pepperoni instead of peroni. I could have died but the young lady serving me informed me that i wasn't the first person to make that mistake. 😂Quote:

The word it rhymes with nearly caused my mother to have heart failure when I was about 8 or 9, my elder brother used to call me a little punk at the time. One day I shouted up the stairs to him (completely mixing my words up), “ Where’s my socks ya c*nt?”, cue my mother nearly collapsing on the kitchen floor!!Quote:
