Re: Swearing ....
A 79 yr old friend says "and 2 fingers to you,matey" which really tickles me. My Nan never swore but I hated it when she called me a donkey. If I said Blimey Mum said "you'll say it one day and he will". Bugger was regarded as a mild swear word "Really??" I wonder why since it must have meant the same then as now.

Re: Swearing ....
The first time I got in trouble for swearing ...I hadnt but my mum use to mis-hear everything , we were watching a Betty Davis film and I was sat on the floor in front of my mums chair . Betty came in wearing a fur coat all swanky like and I said ohh fruity.... my mum wacked my head nearly clean off !!! I asked wot was that for ... and she said I said the other F word but I never did.I never swore until I started work even then it was put on ... I have never really sworn never seen a need for it ....
When I get fed up with people I tend to say Oh for gods sake !!! is that swearing ?

Re: Swearing ....
My mother would say swearing is a lack of vocabulary ...When she passed away.. I was 33 years old .. for some reason ...
I constantly swore ..As soon as I realized .. I was swearing for no reason I stopped .. I think I was rebelling because she died ..The mind does funny things ..
