Just remembered one my grandad used.
"Sunny Jim"
wierd...
Who uses "geeza", is that our friends from the capital?
When I was a kid the term
**** Sparrow
was pretty popular...
vilage life in lancshire was odd though
more cows than people where I'm from
and there was "cocker" too...
Hapton!
Used to know a bloke from there, but farm on the hill, he was called "Ernie", used to keep pigs and sell far and bones.
Can't remember his surname - but they were loaded and smelled of pigs most the time.

BUT BUT BUT....
the village I'm from is still in the 30's!!! 1830's!
Slightly off topic as this refers to what people call other people. In North Somerset, every local name is prefixed with Arr. e.g. Arr Joss, Arr Clive. Haven't come across a Saul in North Somerset . . .
Quote: Down here in Dorset the greeting seems to be; "Allroit moi luverrrr".
