Slang Terms
 
Slang terms, we all say them at some time/point but just what do some of them really mean??

"well I'll go t'foot of our stairs"?

Where bloody hell does that come from and exactly what does it mean hahaha

Hi SamF, yeah I know that what I mean is when someone says something to you and you reply "well i'll go t'foot of our stairs"

Has no one else heard that expression?

Ive heard it, but its generally just the local dialect that makes the normal terms seem strange lol

I though that was because for instance when you say our barbara (sister) you say the our because they are belonging to you in a sense, like belonging to your family (not meaning a posesion but I think you get what I mean lol)
