Love him !! Want one !! Hearing the words 'chuffin cold' brought back a few memories .... people who were, shall we say, a bit slow on the uptake, were referred to as a 'chuffin muffin'.

I remember that

Should I be worried that I could understand him? :undecided:

There's a blast from the past ! Although many of these I still use now. Like you Judi, I wasn't familiar with 'gigs', but I couldn't find 'powfagged' (exhausted), and gradely (great/fine) on the list. We could go on for ages ....
:smiley:

In my neck of the woods, if a person complained about the sort of weather we're having at the moment, or moans about the cold the response would be 'you're reet nesh'. Blank faces all round if I say it here. :hi:

oh yes nesh

I recognised many of those words Judi! Maybe due to having northern parents and a partner from Norn Iron (as karen used to call it)!
