Re: Coming back, what's happened here?
That is the dictionary definition Taddy...mine is the colloquial or slang use of this word.
I do not know who in our family coined the word, but it was always used for elderly, infirm and a bit gormless oldies.

No…Taddy…..I said you were acting like one.
I did not say you WERE one.

I did not say you WERE one. An Italian workmate of mine from years ago who sadly died only last Saturday used to have a comment for such situations, he would say, "in an english/italian accent, "Mike el, is a same differencia". You may even have met him, he lived for years in Hygiene Place in Clayton which is on the other side of the canal from where you are. At the time in the 1980s, Giovani, (if that is spelt right) used to look after the three Lancashire boilers on days, where as I did the same job on nights at OXO in Great Harwood. We only ever met up on Saturday mornings on overtime but what a commical man and good workmate. Rest easy Giovani, you taught me a lot. |
