Failsworth, where all the unrefined people come from.

Failsworth, Oldham people passing themselves off as Mancunians.

It was Manchester when I lived there mate. Just like Newton Heath wasn't when the rags were there.

Mrs Moon just asked what I'm sniggering at, she said bonty....mind she's also from NE Manchester mainly Crompton/Shaw around collecting ages.

Bommie and it's a muffin aswell

Terry Christian called it a bungy/bongy so for that reason alone it's scrapped

This. Always a bonfire but we collected bungy wood for it.

You see that is where this is so wrong, your missus is NOT from NE Manchester. She is from Lancashire. That is the back end of beyond (but still better than Dukinfield/Stalybridge) so she is bound to use a stupid word instead on bommy.

Funnily enough she goes mad when I say Manchester to her rather than Lancs.
