Mummy laughs and cries with all of us

[crabbyob]

what a condescending twatt the guy is
listen mister, all our mothers laugh and cry with us
then "she is only twenty miles away, if you cheer loud enough she might hear us"
tell her not to strain herself, turn on her TV

do you think she pays her TV licence?

[-Oy-]

I have no idea what you're on about 

[crabbyob]

so should i throw myself in front of a bus, because you have no idea who i am complaining about, or should i just write slower?

[-Oy-]

Maybe just explain who and what you mean? 

Or is it a quiz? 

[crabbyob]

the whole country is talking about ones mummy the fact you are not aware of it worries me
but in future if you dont understand a thread, have the good manners to scroll past..

He is a bit old to still be saying "Mummy" but if that's what he's always done, then who are we to take the pixx  ?

[Scrumpy]

My children call me 'Mummy'.. They always have and always will.. 

[Jacqueline]

My aunt always called her mother (my grandmother) mummy, seemed very strange to me. But she never married and lived with grandma.  

[Sheila]

'Mummy' sounds strange to me too.  I'm 'mum'.

[Scrumpy]

Perhaps it's an area thing..

[Alex]

For adults, I always thought the difference was ' posh' and 'unposh' 

I'm Mum too, 'Mummy' stopped at about 8 years old (I think ) 

[Sheila]

We are both up north Alex and not posh like Scrumpy 

[klondike]

I'd go with mum/mummy being largely an age thing.
