Hi Eileen, it's nice when things like the name your children gave things, is carried on years later isn't it, lots of memories, Derek.

there are lots of things we still call by their childhood names or pronunciation. flowers are flowies, tired is ti-od

have to explain to friends when they are used :o)

Hi Eileen, when my daughter was young, every time she sneezed my wife would say 'bless you' and hand her a tissue, it must have sounded like pleshu, because she started asking for a 'pleshu' every time she wanted a tissue, so we both called them 'pleshu, Derek.

Love it! I knew a 90 yr. old lady who called Rudbeckias Ruder Bakers ... and my s-in-law calls campanulas Camper Noolas! :o))

there is a jonny cash song with the lyrics 'daddy sang base and mummy sang tenor' in the car my daughter thought it was 'and mummy served dinner' says a lot about who used to do the cooking :o).

You've got to love mis-heard lyrics!

Ha, ha.

I need to stop giggling...when my son was little, he found saying 'Thank you' difficult and it came out as 'tat, you' All was well, until I said it to the butcher...exit one red faced mum!

I bet that made his day Waddy!

Actually I just got a funny look from him and the other customers in the shop.

That's really funny ... to me anyway! :o)))
