Interesting to hear K-P talk abour 'eawr Peg'.Preston is the only place I know where this phrase/term is used. it means " t' wife/my sister /my girlfriend".

Haha, my husband works with a fella in his 50s from Clayton who calls his wife eawr Peg.

When he first started working with him I'd never heard this saying and thought for quite some time that his wife really was called Peg.
