Subject: Granny (small or otherwise) euphomisms

So, what did your granny say by way of a euhpomism (spelling is wrong I know, but I cant be bothered)

My Granny was strict Methodist Chapel, so she wouldnt even use euphothingies. Any embarrassing things were just ignored, ilke it never happened.

I do remember, when my niece was born, her first grandchild, she sat her on her lap, bouncing her up and down and calling her a 'little toss pot' which seemed a bit strong to a baby, but I assumed this was once a very innocent phrase. Either that, or my naughty cousins who lived with my granny had been using phrases they shouldnt and had conned her into thinkning they were fine. Shame on them.
