I can assure one and all that I shall use the terms 'Barman' and 'Barmaid' instead of 'Barperson', a man who delivers milk will be referred to as a 'Milkman' and a lady with a 'Lollipop' at a zebra crossing I shall refer to as a 'Lollipop lady'. If anyone takes umbrage I will tear a strip off them and they will face shot and shell with me being unable to bridle my tongue.

Presumably commentators can no longer describe a fracas that amounts to not a lot as "handbags"?

I watched the Sheffield Wednesday v Sunderland game on Sky last week, maybe I’m over thinking, but at the end a Wednesday player was voted “player” of the match, what happened to Man of the match ? You also now have Night***chers in Cricket rather than Night***chmen.
I'm so Palace I don't even know it |

Builders' Merchants still call them manhole covers, although I have seen the term 'maintenance hole cover'. Rachael Heyhoe Flint, England women's cricket captain from 1966 to 1978, used to joke that she and her fellow players called the 'box' a manhole cover. Imagine that today!

Keep up Willo, you may have returned by popular demand but this scatter gun bigotry has to stop, you're worse than Stirlingsays.
