You appear to have resorted to abuse instead of simply answering. Why have you resorted to abuse? It's a term widely used in Sheffield, the fact you haven't heard it means you need to get out more.

Fogey Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I have heard the word napper being used as in “sort your Napper out” which translates to “sort your head out”. Now you see this was a reasonable answer. Thanks. ---------- Post added 02-03-2018 at 18:34 ---------- And a lad I played football with in the 60s used to shout “ ouch me napper” every time he headed a ball. Perfectly good word and I wasn’t aware of any unacceptable meaning Back to Mays Churchillian speech analysis. And another response without abuse or nastyness. Cheers.

Litotes Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 So... Mrs May, yet again wanting her cake and eating it... Fundamentally, she is proposing that the UK pays to stays in the EU, but gets no voting rights. If you analyse her speech, the if I was a brexiteer, I'd be very unhappy. If I was a European, I'd be laughing all the way to the negotiating table. All we can hope for is that Frau Merkel has a bad cold when the agreement is signed and overlooks the desperate position the UK is in. ---------- Post added 02-03-2018 at 18:36 ---------- It's a term widely used in Sheffield, the fact you haven't heard it means you need to get out more. I think I heard it in the 70s, maybe that is where backwards peter is coming from - it would explain his pro-brexit stance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you heard it in the 70's why didn't you explain to fogey instead of trying to attack me, nothing backwards about me, but you may have the problem.
