Whenever my nana says "Sweety's been on the phone"
or "Wonder what Darling will say about that..." everybody cracks up because what she means is "TROUBLE, STRIFE AND MURDER!"

do you say "nan-uh" or "nah-nah" ?
I like "nan-uh". I wish I had been taught "nan-uh" but I wasn't, I was taught "gram-aw"
I also know a girl that says "nah-nah" and she's a dirty slut whore.

I'm from Liverpool
so it sounds more like 'nanner' or 'nanneh'.

well that's way better than "nah-nah"
I approve of this usage of Nana.

tell me more about your crazy Sweety.

Seriously, I was gonna give her a mention in 'family feuds' but there are too many tales.
She went through a phase of following me around when she was drunk, or coming into the pub I work in and having a fight with her fella.

I once saw her have such a tantrum that it looked like an exorcism. That was the night she threatened to cut off her tongue.

She asks the most outrageous things as though they're normal, like "Mother, I'm worried about my dad travelling alone. Does one of his walking sticks have a sword in it by any chance?"

She hates me.

that's awesome but it also quite sucks that she hates you
what was she going to do with her tongue after she cut it off?

Throw it on the fire I think...
Nana and my uncle got the knife off her and shook her up until she stopped writhing. We all laugh about it, even her.
She hates me because she was the baby until I came along. She was 6 when I was born. "I'm the fucking baby!!" she said when I was 13. Baby Jane Hudson, anybody?

YES !
I forgot about them.

Do you remember those lemon sweets where it was like a game to see how long you can suck on one without making a face? They had Hot ones too, but that wasn't my cup of tea.

Oh yeah I couldn't do hot sweets
I used to have a cup of water on hand when I dared to eat an Extra Strong Mint.

I wasn't allowed hard sweets but I used to sneakily have them.

I was on this treatment called "CT3211", made by nestle.
For 2 months, I was only allowed this forumlar, that tasted/smelt of off-milk and had the consistancy of a McDonalds milkshake. It was that and medicaly-sterial water (not just a kettle boiled, it tasted bitter). I wasn't even allowed mouthwash, and brushing my teeth I could only do twice a day, which when going through this stuff, was a complete pleasure. Two. Months.

Once a week my dad would let me have a few licks of a lollypop( special ones from Harrods) and then chuck it away (I think he kept it for himself, but he didn't do it infront of me) , and they were amazing, they're still my favorite and I sometimes make trips up there just for these lollys, they're called "Linda's Lollys".

The third time I was allowed Crusha milkshake, as that had the least stuff in, it didn't make it taste nice, but at least it was tollerable. Dad wrote to crusha about it, and they sent us boxes of the stuff, including loads of flavours that never made it to market, like grape and coconut.

God blimey Gonzicle
You've been through the mill.
Our jake used to have special feed but they put it through a tube so he didn't have to taste the cack.

The stuff was to thick to be put through a tube.
There was some kids on the ward who had another similar forumla who could use one, they also got a bit of chocolate.

Those tubes are horrible though, I've had them a few times, it's double bad when you sick it up and it goes out your mouth.

Although it was quite an ordeal, afterwards, they re-introduced you back into foods every week, first was potato (no butter, no skins), and even though it was even hospital-food jacket potato, I will never taste anything nicer than that in my life. The next week was marmight, so it was potato and marmight drinks for me... after a couple of months, it went down to 3 days, then ever day.... the idea being, if you get ill, you can narrow down the food group.

God I hated it enough when I had the runs and my mum wouldn't let me eat
Then after a whole day Grandma would say "Give her a Marie biscuit and see how she is."
A fucking Marie biscuit... I didn't know I was born!
