I object to any of them if it's said to me by someone I don't know well.
In Durham the usual word is "pet" and sometimes "hinney" but in shops you are nearly always addressed as sir or madam. When I used to visit friends in Liverpool, in my teens, you heard people (mainly men) call each other "whacker" but I haven't heard it for years, its "mate" now.
