Common
Freddy Woo writes, "My wife thinks calling the front room a lounge is common. Worse, a friend of hers recently admonished her daughter for calling a toilet, a toilet. Lavatory darling. It's lavatory."
My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

I don't think so...
It's definitely not limited to just this one person in my family (not a blood relative). I have seen northern males on tv (usually on those Britains Hardest Pubs shows) who also say "boccle". Also, Les Battersby played by Bruce Jones (another scumbag)from Coronation Street says it too!
As you can see this statement has been heavily researched!!
Life in MK is not too bad if you like estate after estate of the exactly the same house, with front doors painted various colours for differentiation purposes!
But is does have one good thing, NEMESIS, that body popping group of Chav's!
