Uh...here a trolley can be found in quaint tourist trap cities such as San Francisco...I guess in the land down under, that would be a shopping cart...

kaqphin - 2007-11-12 8:32 PM

umm yeah... shopping cart then.... the big basket on 4 wheels you push around the aisles

kaqphin - 2007-11-12 7:34 PM

hmmm maybe I need someone to educate me?

I think Id perform well for treats....

D001 - 2007-11-13 12:49 PM Sal - Thanks for interpreting! I was trying to figure out where the trolley came in. LOL Cat - What do you call the front of the car, where the engine goes? And the back, where you store "stuff"?

D001 - 2007-11-13 12:49 PM Do I have room in my sig for another quote? LOL

It just so happens I specialise in that sort of thing, and there are plenty of things I would like to see you do.

Hi, Twisnibbins...

I've been lurking around here again...looking at scary pictures of cheerleaders with mustaches and fried goodies. I found a picture for COJ's Beat the Picture that I thought might just fit in with all your lovely jpgs, so I thought I'd share (out of gratitude for your help in choosing between ice cream and wine last week).

Hi .  I'm not even going to bother trying to catch up since I've been MIA for two days.  Lemme know if there's anything really important I need to know.  In the meantime, I can give you this based on the shopping cart thing I just read...

As a northeasterner transplanted to the south one of my favorite "southernisms" is "buggy"... yup, that's what a shopping cart is called here.  I also enjoy "git yer picture made" as opposed to my "take a picture" and the ever-popular "Oh bless your heart..."

kaqphin - 2007-11-12 8:51 PM

the front: bonnet

the back: boot

I always thought a buggy was like a pram... that you push a child around in...

Or a buggy is what a horse pulls around....

D001 - 2007-11-12 6:58 PM I know exactly what you mean! I grew up with "shopping carts" and now live where they have "buggies."

Yoganerd - 2007-11-12 8:57 PM

No, no, in the Southern US, a shopping cart is definitely called a buggy.
As in, "Is that all y'all's buggy?"
and, "Yonto go shopping, I'll push the buggy"

D001 - 2007-11-13 12:56 PM Yeah, see.... The first time I heard that (from a friend), I was completely confused. Of course, there was nothing to put it in context. It went kind of like this: She said, "So I put the pot in the boot." I replied, "Um. Huh?" LOL

Hey, everyone!

Well, we had our first TEAM tonight, but it was all introductory stuff, so we did not work
out. And, by the time that we finished, my stomach was really grumbling, so I decided to
head home and spend time with the dog.

So... we have this super-wide screen because the page numbers do not wrap around. I'm
rambling a bit in this e-mail so that I can do a lot of shift-enters, rather than relying on wrapping
the text... is this any easier to read? Rather than continually scrolling to the right / left?

milaminute - 2007-11-12 6:59 PM

Yes, yes, that's it exactly!! You speak good southern .

D001 - 2007-11-13 1:00 PM That's what I've been trying to do, too. We could always move to the other thread, if this one gets really annoying.... You know - the one with 109 posts on it.

sparco - 2007-11-12 7:01 PM

Oh my...page 115 and I realized you guys haven't seen pics of buff guys lately...we're sorry we've been failing in our job...

ROTFLMAO 

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoy...

Hey, I just got another star.

Thats just the beginning... the Aussies also laugh when I say:

Judder Bars: Speed bumps in the road

Jandals: Thongs or Flip Flops

Chilly Bin: Ice Box or whatever that you but drinks etc in to keep them cold while at the beach etc

D001 - 2007-11-13 1:03 PM  I changed my sig line. LOL
