Misunderstood
My other half rang a courier today to get a disc sent over to a client. The courier company asked what it was she was sending. "A computer disc", she said.
Half an hour later, 3 blokes in a van turned up. They looked a little disappointed to be handed a floppy disc: they were all prepared to shift a computer desk across London.
Have you been utterly misunderstood recently?

The Doric in Aberdeen
Doric is the local version of Scots spoken in Aberdeen, I come from 120 miles away and somtimes it's inpenetrable.
Up here a boy child is called a loon and a girl is a quine french connection knows why.
cue a few years ago at the hospital an english white settler in hysterics when the local nurse announces "you've got a braw wee loonie" when the ankle biter pops out.
tip never ask a woman "when its due" unless you can actually see the head popping out and sometimes not even then
