Now you're taking te piss...............a yorkie girl in Italy being more refined???????????????????????:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
 

ah well -

I left Yorkshire in 1990 so didn't have enough time to become a totally corrupt young adult ... or maybe I just had a pretty good group of friends. We were good girls in those days. One of our biggest fears was going home pregnant or with a coloured guy .................... and I say this because it's true and a lot of dads' used to say it to all of us at the time in the 80's.

It is not racist or disrespect but a fact, and the fact that I feel obliged to explain on here why it should not be considered a racist statement shows how far the PC world has launched its tentacles because I have been gone so long and so many words have not yet got into Italy where I live but just because I am writing in English - I should be more careful.

That is how it was. My Dad and a thousand others did say "don't come home with a bun in the oven or ............................ "

I'm quite sure my Dad today is different ......... and he still has one un-settled daughter. That was then. That is what was different.

Sorry Lorna. I was taking the piss.............using the stereotype of the "in your face" yorkie and the "very loud, excitable" Italian.:o

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
 

That's okay. I know you were.

I just jumped up on my little soapbox a bit and when you don't have much "shout" being in Italy and all that, where folks don't understand, you tend to shout where you can..... especially in your own langauge.
THIS IS ME SHOUTING !

I was waving my arms about a lot as I wrote this :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
 

Aw didums, have a hug:wub:

Re: The Pass Inn and Pass Out
 

Thanks for the hug.

Back on my soapbox for a minute -------------- there are thouands and thousands of expats that are or have struggled to make a new life. I applaud them because I have too. I have had another part that USA or AUS or Canada or NZ have not had .... the langauge!

I haven't paid any money in visas and the such to get there - but for every bit of bread or cheese or ham or tomatoe or cherry or grape, I have had to learn a new word.
I am damn proud of that.
