How do you define someone as common?

There was a thread on mumsnet saying it was considered common to cut your carrot in rings rather than batons!

Thanks, pensionpat.
They will insist that people like me can't have a sense of humour, though.

I will correct my own - other not 'pother'

whispers .... I thought we weren't suppose to correct pother posters' spelling and grammar ..... shhhh

Oh, was it supposed to be funny ?

I think that was humour Ninny.

Do you have tattoos Durhamjen or are you fat, is that why you have taken unbridge with my post.

Why would anyone tattoo their clothes?

Fat women in skimpy clothes covered in tattoos.

My Mum used to say -"That one is all fur coat and no knickers"

I certainly have heard of the Coydon facelift - its a severely pulled back ponytail planted high on the head.

That's mean eazybee.

You need look no further than the Duchess of York.

I am growing my hair with the intention of having one trueblue (have to do something and am too scared to have surgery!)

Anyone heard of the Croydon facelift?

My DM thought putting the milk bottle on the table was common. My brother and I would do it to tease her. I think my "beyond the pale" is seeing people out in their PJs. I was truly gobsmacked seeing someone doing a big shop in supermarket in PJs and slippers. Not just a quick dash in and out. I can't go out of house in my slippers.

Going out in your pyjamas!

LbDems are very posh. Conservatives are positively aspirational lower working class now

One of our grandchildren apparently has a posh name. I didn't know this until I was asked by a (fairly posh Tory) friend what the baby was called and when I told him he said "you can't have a grandchild called xxx - you are a Liberal Democrat!

but I would never eat one in the street

mmm, strong cheese and beetroot sandwiches, beetroot falling out of the sandwich, yum.

Yes, I learnt on here that DGD's name is apparently terribly posh

According to my late MIL eating a sandwich of pickled beetroot is common.

I wrote a similar post earlier about names, but like you didn’t give examples. Too sensitive and risky

*without that extra 'I' though.

I was going to bring up children's names, but I discretion is the better part of valour. I dont want to offend anyone.
