:shock:
I'll explain.......now since Sheddy and I got together I have met most of his family apart from his Nana, and today was the day of the first visit to meet the famous Nana. Now Sheddy as first born grandchild is by far Nana's favourite, but unfortunatly this doesn't mean that his girlfriend are automatically liked by Nana, so I was a little worried about what she would make of me.
So off we set down to deepest darkest Cheshire to pick up Sheddys nipper and then head off to see Nana. As soon as we get in the car, I noticed that Sheddy was refering to Nana as Nanar, but I just put it down as a Sheddyism and didn't say anything about it. Little did I know what I was about to encounter........
So we arrive as NanaHQ only for Sheddy to start talking it a totally different language........I'm not just talking about accents, the words and phases he was using were totally foriegn to me and I was left totally bemused as to what was going on. Somehow or other despite not understanding a single thing I was actually a hit with Nana and she now wants me to move in (or that was what I interpereted what she was saying!
Now I was of course a little bemused, but after dropping the nipper home and setiing off back to PKHQ I question the Shedster over what he was talking about, only for him to be surprise tha I couldn't understand what had been going on for the last hour or so. He in turn was surprised that I couldn't understand them.
Now just to give you an idea of what I was dealing with I'll give all you nice folk a quick beginers lesson in Sheddy speak.........
Gam won.....................'going home'
Shippin.........................'a type of farm building' apparently
Snappin.......................'food ie sandwiches'
Esshole.......................'fireplace'
Bloody country bumpkins........couldn't understand a word.............
