The Dogmother Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Seen on another forum but couldn't resist posting it.... Found on the floor at Te$co Other posters lists: Ah that's really cute TBH though it looks a bit like our shopping list........................we have 'nick names' for things and put them on the list rather than write out the 'proper' names Our current list reads..... Boonies Beana Shrooms Chesny Na-na's Yog-yog's Creamo Crips's We are adults.......honest! Trolls are a regular feature on our lists you forgot the boggies. that is bog rolls. loo rolls. doh never mind. my norfolk based friends think that im being obscene but where i came from they were always referred to as that. Rosie refers to body lotion as 'Guk' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 That brings back memories of getting my children to write my lists for me and add on their own sometimes strange requests. My list are pretty boring, we usually have a running list on a pad that everyone can add to, but "Ooops, word censored!"ody can read anyone's handwriting in this house so it makes for some interesting puzzles in the supermarket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 My mum once told me about a little girl who added something to the shopping list so dad would buy it Scribs He bought them! (we now call crisps scribs ) Cathy X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Years ago my mum asked dad to add Elastoplast on the shopping list. So they went to the supermarket and she couldn't find this particular item. As soon as she said "do you have any Elastical plastical" she realised what she'd said too late. The woman gave her a funny look and my dad cracked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I like that one, I think we may have elastical plastical now.

The Dogmother Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 Plum... how on earth does horseradish become Moose Varnish? Rosie's take on it..... Donkey's breakfast = Muesli Body Guck = body lotion Face Guck = moisturiser Trolls = loo rolls Snappy = cling film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapdragon Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Sometimes I let Nat (7) write the shopping list, which is usually interesting, but it generally evolves over the week. It often includes: Kiffs - crisps Bogo - loo cleaner Farty tins - baked beans Hairy lipped squid - washing up liquid (any brand!) Whinging beer - ginger beer Big lemons - melons Parsley nipples - parsnips Chocolate butter - Nutella or similar Chocolate breadsticks - chocolate fingers Squeezy tomato - tomato puree tube Suggestive biscuits - digestive biscuits And there are others that I could not possibly mention before the watershed - I only hope that no-one finds my discarded shopping list with those on!!!!

soapdragon Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 OOpps.....I forgot 'odour under de-armament' (otherwise known as underarm deodorant!) It goes on the list as ODA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 It's usually referred to on my list as antiunderarmpong - OH just puts down deo. How boring he has no imagination. DD will sneak on "eis essen bitte" ever since she did German at school. In fact I get the verbal most evenings while sitting in the armchair. Currently means Magnum Gold or Ben and Jerry's Oh My Apple Pie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 We don't have many that I can think of Underarm (=Deoderant) Cat Fud (=Cat food, from a FarSide cartoon where the dog was trying to get the cat in the washing machine) Taytoes (=potatoes) I love everyone elses, might have to adopt some.

soapdragon Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Its occuring to me that channel 4 may want to turn this into a tele prog/game show where 'celebs' (poss bb rejects!!?) could do an Omleteer's weeks shopping with an 'encrypted' list with points for items correctly guessed from the aforesaid Omleteer's list. Or maybe I should just get out more (but NOT to the supermarket!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I asked OH to pick up some sanitary towels for me ages ago. When I saw his shopping list he'd written "chuff pads" ( sorry mods if I have stepped too far with slang ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
