Things Norries Say

[MrFrisp]

That's Marian Stores, she was miserable....

Marian Stores...

Sheares St? Across from the Mardyke?

 

[MrFrisp]

I'm not from the city. Someone said to me one time, 'she gave me a fifty'. I was thinking thìs was very generous only to learn later what it meant

If she was a Norrie, and gave you a fifty, it was indeed very generous of her.

You had a lucky escape there kid..

Nope. There was actually three of them, Sheares St, Wellington Rd & Richmond Hill. Good old Catholic Ireland.....

I work with a girl from the Northside who when talking to her siblings says "my mam" or "my dad" instead of just mam or dad. As in "Are you calling up to my mam later". Is this a Northside thing? I'd never heard it before

That is strange.

No, she’s just very possessive!

They actually all seem to say it (the siblings) so maybe it's a family thing. I'd never come across it before

It could come from the classroom. Like to say, if the teacher uses chalk it must be correct?
