..And we asked where our mother was dad always replied she'd ran away with a black man.
What would todays answer be if he was still here?.
 
she ran off with a man with no discernable physical qualities that I dare mention in case I accidently cause offence.
 
My dad used to say it and we are Brummies!! But he could of meant the coal-man in them days :wink:

must be a Lancashire thing Libby, my dad used to say the same thing..

Mine too and we're north east

Mine too and we were midlands...

It's a cultural language thing.... times change....
My eldest asked me earlier how words become swear words... and it is simply about the person that says them and why they say them... to get a reaction... and if it hurts it can end up being a swear word...
