    I've never been called a chook before. Makes me think of a headless chicken flailing to its death.

    I have plenty of female friends obsessed with football....most of Manchester is!

    It bloody should be! Sounds like my type of town.

      ha, sorry - bad habit of using northern colloquialisms: chook, mate, chicken, duck, love. And the one I dont use...cock.

      This fascinates me. People use "cock" to address each other in a friendly way? Is it something like "Oyyy ya crazy cock"? Because I can't think of it as "I love you, you cock"!

      think it derives from cocker, as in "alright cocker?" got shortened to cock somewhere along the way...as I say, not something I would say but a lot of older folks in Mancland do like to say it.

      Sexy.

      Hope it didn't get too uncomfortable talking about it.

      I just noticed that it was one of my codes that brought you here. Yay. Guess we're related now. :)

      You're welcome. Pilfered... do you own a stash with all these unique words? Anyway, don't want to hog you on here just to have you talking to me. Nice meeting you ;)
