you will pass anytime rbilly, enjoy .

Bring us some hegg butties back!

Have a good one.

What is a hegg buttie. I know that buttie is a sandwich but don't know abot the hegg.

southern belle sliced/diced soft boiled egg on bread with a little salt

It's a play on words SB. Many of us Wiganers 'drop our haitces'. House is often pronounced owse etc.

But, when some folk try to be posh ie putting on airs and graces, they put a haitch where there isn't one.

As with Irene's hegg butties.

In short, she's impersonating someone who is trying to be posh, but failing comically.

Thank you, dostaff, for that lesson. I actually did have a hegg buttie for brekky this morning....

You're welcome, Southern Belle. There are a few other quotes of people trying to be posh. I can't remember at the moment, but I think one had a lady who dropped the common 'pratus' (potatoes) into a conversation.

Years ago we were on hols down in Rhyl and my aunty went into an upmarket butchers shop for something for tea.
(now you have to imagine this in a right posh voice )
"Oh yes eyl have four of those slavery ducks please".

We were skrykin wi laffin.

welL crimplean dress made an im pression and the white stilletoes were a really good match i did not weare me american tan tights though changed my mind and put on my black ones looked better with my white shoes ..i turned a few heads i can tell you.. any way a good time was had by all happy new year every one hope what ever you all did you had a good evening .. we WENT TO THE MILL HOTELL AT CROSTEN WITH OUR FREINDS 8 OF US WENT AND WE HAD A REET GUD NEET DID:NT WE BENT LEGS....

irene soz no hegg buttys ...

We did Rbilly, IT was a cracking neet, Pitty we had to carry you to the car this morning,

Dostaf, my Auntie Mary was a past master at trying to be posh and getting it wrong! At Walking Day, (Our new lady Southern Belle will wonder what that is too!), she used to "put it on" when the vicar passed by but got her aitches in the wrong places, and it would come out, "Oh, 'ello Vicar, hisn't it 'ot?", and then to his wife, "Hit's very naice to see you...hisn't it warm?". Then she would spot some high-up Church Lady's little lad "leading out" carrying a beribboned crook, and would say to my Mam, "'Ey-up, Ah thowt yon mon 'ud a't t'be a shepherd!"

I've heard loads of them, Irene. But can't remember specific ones.

You should start a 'Hegg Butties' thread and form a collection.

bent legs wot ast towd um for / i wanted fot keep it secrit..lol ps i wont tell um wer yo ended up sleepin last neetor shud i say early hours oh this morning

Our Southern Belle will think it's a foreign language!

It pretty much is a foreign language to me, Jim has been in the states for 13 years and I've only known him for 2, therefore by the time I met him, he was somewhat understandable BUT let me say, I think ya'll and your language are so charming......

The things she came out with,Bless her, we used to laugh for weeks at some of them.
