nubile   10 #13 Posted December 31, 2011 During my first week in Sheffield, after I bought a paper in a newsagents, the bloke behind the counter said "Cheers love". A bloke calling me love, that threw me a bit.  Yeah quite common to be called love, duck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Zepp   10 #14 Posted December 31, 2011 hehe, getting called duck also confused me. First time I was called duck, I thought she was insinuating that I looked like a duck. So I waddled off in a huff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

MrMoran   10 #18 Posted December 31, 2011 Well, kale is a type of cabbage as far as I know  Thats where the name Kale-eyed comes from. Scrubbers used to make booze out of it and apparently it would send them blind. A bit like too much porn did for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
