Things you refuse to call by their new name

No one seems to die anymore. They pass/pass over/gain their wings.

Get in the sea.

And all these mentions of "heavenly birthdays" on social media.
What's wrong with just mentioning "it would have been my mum / dad / goldfish's birthday today had they still been alive".

I know a family that go on the raz each month to mark their mum’s death and post photos of it on social media.

They're on month 93 now. Madness. 94 wakes is a bit OTT! (For me anyway)

Bloody forrin languages.

I still mentally convert decimal currency back into real money.

I can't believe that shops charge over 7 bob for a piece of fruit, and 6 bob for a Freddo... and people pay it!

It can be over a guinea for water....

Perhaps she was posh or just younger than me.

I was born in Urmston Cottage Hospital. I've just googled it. It was a flamin' house !

She lived in Old Trafford (near the cricket ground) then Sale Moor before I met her, if that's anything to go by.

How long ago was that ?
As mad as it sounds, as a kid growing up in Wythenshawe almost 50 years ago, I actually used to go to the library and read books on nutrition, physiology etc, that when I first became aware of it, in the books it would have in brackets how it was pronounced, it was like that for a long time but seemed to change around 20 years or so ago.

Sorry to hear about your lad btw, hope he’s doing ok.

4 year ago, a week after his 15th birthday, he will be 20 in January.

He's doing ok ish, lives on a diet of Morphine and fentanyl, needs to eat dietary enzyme replacements with any food and of course cant produce insulin or glucagon and given that he has constant high level of pain the stress response of the body is to use up any glucose which leads to constant hyperglycaemia, shit sorry to waffle. if the shit interests you feel free to dm and ask what you want

Jordan, not Katie Price or whatever her name is nowadays.

Still refer to ‘taping’ to programs rather than recording
