Two nations separated by a common language. I suppose being exposed to the offerings of Hollywood over the years probably makes it easier for us Brits. My wife lived in Canada for a few years and got some strange looks when she tried to purchase what she later found out you call an eraser.

Huh? --oh, wait. I think I know what she called it. As in, an object you use to rub out mistakes, right?

OK, now to look for a situation where I can use the phrase "dozy tart." It will probably arise on the drive home, probably more than once.

Did you hear about the lady who called 911 when McDonalds ran out of chicken mcnuggets? She should've been given a refund, and should've spoke to the manager or phoned the pd directly.

As this is my thread and I am of the female persuasion I can get away with it.

Dozy tart is commonly applied to any stupid female as an insult but is also used by friends in the same way Homer Simpson would say "Doh!".

I think it's cool you guys are now looking for the perfect chance to use the expression.

Let us know when you have had the chance to use it.

I remember when Jerry Springer first came over here with his show and someone used the expression "bint". After looking confused for a while it was explained to Mr Springer that "bint" is another word for tart, ho, slapper.....................take your pick!

That, my friends, is Valleys. No I do not understand it either most of the time. Unfortunately my daughter is growing up speaking it
