Right, Trishy, I feel up to answering you now!

 

My plates of meat are killing me.    Very good. Plates of meat is CRS (Cockney Rhyming Slang) and "my feet are killing me" is not just Southern. In fact, that saying sounds Northern to me. Perhaps it is used everywhere. Do you say it?

 

Loaf of bread.  Yes, that is most definitely CRS. But they wouldn't say bread. They would just say

"Use your loaf!"

 

Porkie/pork. Yes, exactly right.

 

House is in a bit of a tip.  Yes, that's right, but more likely to just say my house is a tip. But I'm being a bit picky there...

 

Incidentally, my house is a tip is used everywhere. Not CRS. Very common round here.

 

Altogether, good job. I would say 8 out of 10. Some room for improvement but definitely on the right track. Well done, Blackpool Betty!  :thumbsup:

[[Ca...]]

What a load of cockney... -it all sounds very Aussie to me...!!

Convict perhaps...

[[4G...]]

That's interesting, Cant. I was wondering about your Aussie words. I know some. Please forgive spelling.

 

Ute. A van.

 

Galah. A bird but it must be stupid because calling someone a galah means they are daft.

 

Arvo. Afternoon.

 

Sheila. A woman.

 

Any more?  Gilly x

English,

I think our Can't is pulling your chain as we say here sometimes in America😂

 

All I could find on convict as slang is "flash language".. Google it😂😂

 

Although I could be completely wrong..bci am working with only my 1% brain.. Where's my smart twin when I need her?! 😂

 

[[Tr...]]

Also I might add here in the states " CRS" means can't remember sh*t lol!! Just a fun fact😁

 

Can't have you ever seen a kangaroo? I imagine you've seen many.. I've only ever seen them in pictures..

 

Black pool Betty

English, I'm still watching how clean is your house.. They say they are"God smacked" when they are shocked or surprised or blown away as I would say by the transformation of their homes, is that expression still used??

 

Black pool Betty😁

[[4G...]]

No, Trishy, they are gobsmacked. Gob as in mouth. So they are as surprised as if someone had smacked them in the mouth.

 

I don't think Cant is having me on. I think what he is saying is that a lot of the sayings in Australia may have originated from here and made it over there because of the convicts that were sent over there from the UK instead of being given a prison sentence.

Afternoon to all, Stut, I would not be able to get through life without the f-word. I sure as hell would never make it through Benzo withdrawal. So, all you potty mouth buddies, fire away! Hang in Cousin Mary, the worst is over. Of course, the doctor couldn’t be trusted on the pain meds. That is because he probably thinks he knows it all. Feel like I know him. Yay, Gilly! You did more today than I have done in months. Cut Feb 20 out of your calendar and put it where you can see it on the next bad day you have. That is what I would do(if I get a good day). When a bad day comes, it always feels like that is the way it has always been. At least for me. And putting it into perspective is really important because we need hope. Love to all, Esperanza

[[4G...]]

Thanks,Esp for your encouragement. Yes, I did do quite a bit and then things fell apart in my head. Obsessive thoughts. You are right, once the bad stuff starts it seems like it's been like that forever and will be like that forever. Hope you have a good day tomorrow. Love and Hugs.  Gilly xxx 💟

[[Tr...]]

Morning everyone,

 

Hope you all have a decent day today! It's back to work for me.. work is delayed due to weather so it's a late start , yay!!

 

Sweet D, hoping that you are feeling better and that you can return here soon, thinking of you..

 

Love to all,

Trish♥️
