Smudge the Demon asks: Have your kids - or anyone else's - come out with something that provoked extreme laughter, embarrassment, fear or outrage? Tell us your little darlings' memorable sayings. It's like Take a Break's letters page, only with more swearing

one of the problem with Bristolians (and Christ there's many) is that they add unnecessary R's on the end of words that don't have them. For example the thing kids slide down in the park is the slider.
My daughters name ends in an a and her uncle Steve (strong Bristolian accent) always adds an rrrr on the end when he addresses her. She doesn't like it, she doesn't like it one bit, she corrects him but uncle Steve being a bit of a wind up merchant just does it even more. So she came to me for advice
"why don't you call uncle Steve a name back to show him how it feels" was my excellent parenting advice
so at the next family do, it was a packed boat trip down the river lovely time being had by all
"all-right ***rrrrrrr" said uncle Steve to my little duckling
"bog off you fat bald git"

Nice.
I would have smacked her 'round the back of the head and told her to have some respect.

Many moons ago, I worked as a nurse in Southmead Hospital. My "R" story concerns a mother who came into casualty with her daughter. When I asked what was wrong with her daughter she said (in a very thick Bristolian accent) "Ar Saral's got diarreeor." Lovely.
