I've never known anyone take offence at being called "a nutter". It's always used in jest, usually among men or lads.
Equally, I've never heard anyone take offence at being told their "nuts". It goes with crackers, barmy, that sort of thing - almost always used in jest, and not considered offensive.

Hello Amanda, How are you this evening?

Tec.

Hello Tec ......I'm fine thank you : ))

I think most people quite like being told they are a " nutter " in jest , it makes them feel special ......lol

Don't be shocked Amanda, I am an upright citizen honestly, well most of the ime

Oops - just found out the meaning of the first one.
Sue - we'd better write that one on our list of 'words not to be used'.

Tec - what part of Parramatta Road? It is about 18 miles long and takes in a few suburbs.

You were'nt very upright Linda the day you rolled about in the road lol.

I've sent you a PM re roasted.

Well I must have definitely lead a sheltered life because I know nothing of Roasted other than dinners .
My kids over the years have exposed me to a great deal of the modern slang but never that one .

Linda , everyone needs a little break from being an upright citizen , you go girl ! lol

Berona, I can't remember, was a long time ago, but it was about a 15 minute drive into the city in those days - seem to remember there were lots of used car lots just where I was.

Tec.

Excuse me, I rolled about the road because I tripped in a pot hole, I had not been out for lunch that day!

We rented a place in Parramatta Road for a few months, while we waited for our house to be built.
Constant traffic, 24/7 - still the same.
There used to be an area known as 'the magic mile of motors' - that was about half way - Lidcombe, Auburn, Strathfield. Any of those ring a bell?

Thank you Linda - told you I'd led a sheltered life, now do you believe me lol.

Tec.

Oh dear, anyone else reading this is going to think I am some sort of nutter for sure. it was ll Sue's fault as usual

I don't want to talk about the double meanings of words anymore - it's making me blush and feel a little faint. You all know I'm very sensitive:-))

How very unladylike Linda - rolling around on the road. I know your town and the locals must've been shocked.

Berona, Strathfield definately rings bells, because I remember associating sp with the old P&O ships that went out of service, Strathaird, Stratheden, Strathnaver etc.
I've got some old letters somewhere with those friends address on, I'll dig them out sometime.
They were the friends that called me "Our mate the Pommie Galah" they were all "nutters" and pushed me in the water at Circular Quay and nearly got me arrested - good days.

Tec.

See ladies - our Tec was not so innocent after all. I bet your mates have some stories to tell.

Sue there are some old men (like me) walking about Sydney who could tell a few tales, with a grin on their faces. Sadly you'll never meet them - I hope lol :))

Tec.

I am off to bed now,for those not here yet, it wasn't my fault the thread degenerated tonight.

Goodnight Amanda and Tec, enjoy the rest of your day Sue and Berona

Good night Linda , sweet dreams to you .

I thought I'd better nip back in here in case Sue grasses me up for being on another thread .

Linda, The thread was quite educational tonight I thought lol.
Goodnight,
sleep well - keep warm,
Tec.

Goodnight Linda - sweet dreams:-))

That's ok Amanda - I'm watching you and will report if you play up:-))
