Jeanie	BS: Those handy UK expressions... (270* d)	RE: BS: Those handy UK expressions...	13 Oct 07
Me again.....Just thinking, what is the younger version of an "old git" ? A young...what ? All I can think of is a "young Herbert", but I'm begining to think I'm very old-fashioned and talk like Bertie Wooster. What about the expression: "Matey" ? I only ever use that in a derogatory sense and for strangers who never hear me saying it, so not for mates at all, and only ever when driving the car, as in: "You wait your turn, Matey !".... Little Hawk: I loved your definitiion of "moggie", by the way. That was spot on. Oh, just thought of some more good expressions: "the bees knees"..."the cat's pyjamas." - jeanie
