As a Scouser..scallies calling everyone "Lad". Fine if you're still a teenager but when it's two grown men... FFS!

Nope...Lad but pronounced "lid" as in "Alright lid, you goin the pub later lid?" Thought a lid was something you put on a bottle/jar but I digress...

Youare a scouser so not arguing but 'lid' sounds like a South African saying 'lad'. Used to work with a Scouser and he explained it was pronounced 'Lar' or 'Lars' for multiple.
Edit - After checking on the web, both words are used....

Guilty as chargedWhen meeting in the pub to watch the footie:
"Alright lad?"
"Sound lad. How's your lad, lad?"
"Yeah sound, lad"
"right lads, shold I get the bevies in? Oi lad! Three pints of Stella!"
"Cheers lad"
Weirdly,m when I lived in manchester, it was "fella", not "lad"
