Geordies.
 
Hi there,

we are currently looking at whatever route possible to get over to NS.

Are there any black and white ex-pats already out there??:huh:

I have already been in touch with a couple - you know who you are!!:thumbsup:

Best regards,

erinbrooke.

I believe this thread might be of interest in a wa-ayy up the lads sort of way.

I'm lapsed. Anyway, I was born in Durham so I don't really count.

Novo, I'm not really sure that you are a Geordie. Admittably my memory is befuddled by the several pints of ale consumed when we met, but I can't recall any 'Wa'aay' moments and you never once referred to your trousers (or anyone else's trousers) as 'Kecks'.;)

AX,

I am DEFINATELY a Geordie - and I don't think i've ever called my trousers 'KECKS'.

And it's 'whey aye' BTW!!!

Perhaps this is a Mackem thing or something.:thumbdown:

For a more accurate translation in future check out www.geordie.org.uk:thumbsup:

Regards,

erinbrooke.

Forgive me, I'm just having a gentle pop at Novo. (Who I have met) not at Geordies in general.

AX, I've learned to camouflage my true origins when talking to suverners.

The dog's name's a bit of a giveaway though innit? A Londoner would call a black and white dog something quite different.

Come on then Novo, whats the dog called??:D

Yeabut, I've told him not to post on here. What would he be called if he were a Lahndener?

He's a Border Collie, so he's called "Geordie" of course.

Ooooh! l'll tell Charlie you said that.

On edit: Charlie is dbd33's gay doggy, not whoever erinbrooke was referring to upthread.

Perhaps we should request a beam-up to the Maple Leaf for this thread?
