    Evidently an English viral video... it's taken about 6 months to reach you down in upside down land <ok>

    Edit: What the feck is a 'Servo'?

    1. My son sent me it. He lives in Hull. Last time I was there in 1998 they were about 2 years behind the rest of the world.
    2. You spelt f u c k wrong.
    3. A 'servo' is 'Strine' (Australian) for a "Service Station". Afternoon is an 'arvo'. Anything that an Australian can't find a word for is called a 'thingo'!

    Stick with me Tel and I'll explain more thoroughly.
    When I first came to live in Sunderland in 1960 I had great difficulty understanding what "ahdivanah' meant and what a 'Tiddlyoggie' was but within the year I was talking that good people wouldn't believe I wasn't born there.

    There should be a few Aussies in Sunderland for the friendly international between England and Australia (known as "The Socceroo's") on Friday 27th May.

    Things have got much worse now for Hull, it's a good 10 years at least now.

    Tiddly Oggie? Proper pastie? never heard that one.

    ahdivvinah is fairly self explanatory.

    my favourite northernism is haddawayanshite.

    When I lived in Sunderland a "Tiddlyoggie" was a Pork Pie.
    A scarecrow was a "tatty-bogle".
    I learned pretty quickly that nobody said 'Yes' in Sunderland, it was always "Wi aye man"!
    When I went back to Hull nobody could understand me as I used to forget to talk Yorkshire.

    Tiddlyoggie pork pie?

    Never heard of that before.

    Tiddly...small/tiny.
    Oggie....pastie.

    Maybe things changed as time past.

    In Finland it could get you something very unexpected. I hope its something nice, like a free sauna with Miss Finland and not something like a whale blubber pie.

    There used to be Savaloy and Peas Pudding on everything in those days too.
    I played a trick on one of the girls and asked her to get me some red and white striped paint - she stuck it up me by coming back with a tube of 'signal' tooth-paste!<laugh>
