Yes it is Kipax, I was always addressed as "mate" down souf and women are often addressed as "luv" or "love" but those ladies that are "up market" which includes my late wife resent people who are "too familiar!" although I do think they like it on the quiet (Thats being called love, not err, you know, the other - - - )
