Well that's alright then.

[EDOldie]

Great. At least it's better than 'perfect'.

[embellina]

Right! While I'm thinking of what I actually want to say.

I use to say "I'm not being funny" a lot, but it's amazing what watching Charlie from Big Brother can do for stopping a habit like that.

[dulwichmum]

Dear Annasfield,

Fella is a Dublin thing too!

[Keef]

Dublin, Liverpool, what's the bloody difference?!? ;-)

[KalamityKel]

I cant stop saying "I is"!!! God help me!

"It just looks that big because your kneeling" !

[Rolo Tomasi]

"I don't wanna zig before I zag". Roughly translated as.....I'm taking it easy tonight/today as I'm going out tomorrow/later

[seanmlow]

Fuck

[wee quinnie]

I have been studying a dire Restoration play recently, and just cannot stop saying:

Adsheartlikins!

and also

A pox on't.

[giggirl]

Words I loathe are "NICE" and "AWESOME" - find another word you lazy sods

[KalamityKel]

Sweet

[Keef]

"Exactly Right!"

[bagpuss78]

"Tis true" & "How Funny"

[Keef]

Ha, had never really noticed before, but "how funny" is definitely you! :))

[suzilucy]

"Never again"

"Ah, you'll be grand"

"large sauvignon please"

..........hence phrase 1 above

No, I hadn't noticed until this thread started and i was thinking is there anything i say alot. Of course now i'm really concious about it and am trying to curb my "how funnies" :)

[Keef]

Jah pointed out my "exactly right"'s, and said he'd started saying it. Until then I hadn't noticed, now I want to slap myself every time! I still like it though.

[wee quinnie]

The Open Uni (Perhaps i should start a thread on my Ou experiences) is also causing me to say

"Ah yes, dear sweet Poesy" - I tend to say it when I notice the Poetry thread has been updated - altho' I am also on the verge of saying it when the limericks thread gets updated

See item 2 on Kebab reference

[buggie]

have a really bad jim bowen-esk affliction, where by at work when ambulance crews/parents/colleagues are telling me what the injury/illness is with the child they're with or looking after I seem to say "ok, great" or even worse "super" - think its more that my brain's whirring and working out what needs doing and the "super" comes because I know exactly what I need to do.

In a similar vein yesterday I went "wha-hey" when the Dr said a child had got a broken arm as I'd correctly spotted the injury and ordered the x-ray before he'd seen them. As I'd told the mum initally I'd thought it was broken and why, she wasn't too upset to see me "wha-hey-ing"!
