You would not want to go to court to say how bad someones charecter is and say " he is wicked your honour " or when chatting up someone you fancy stopping speaking when they say "shut up ". I find it all very confusing !!!!!

me too.with a cup of tea at usually 4 pounds for a teapot with a hot water refill and the cost of fuel to get there and the odds and ends extra you buy when there that's probably about 20 pounds at least in the end.When watching trees grow is free that's a lot of money and worthy to be called a trip out. It constantly amazes me the price we are willing to pay for hot water and a tea bag! Take a flask and go sit by a river. Garden centres are one of my pet hates but my OH loves them, to me they are just ridiculous prices for tat, who pays over a thousand pounds for a barbeque FFS? Its about having a look at the sparkly stuff,weird stuff and smelly things...that you cannot afford and have no intention of buying but like looking at and sniffing.
