They also like to be called "wankers", it is ok to use wanker instead of mate or chap.

 

[Tubby-Nuts2]

Call me a 'Wanker', and you will receive a damn good 'Chinning'.

But it is true enough, between friends.

In jest.

Oh dear no. It all depends how long or well you've known the said wanker.

It is also ok to call a pal a fanny

One day in London, at the underground, a guy passed me down the stairs and gave me a shove and then very politely said: Cheers mate!

Now another one often heard in Wales is "Love". When I've paid at a shop I alway so "ta love" meaning thank you my dear, not love of my life. If I said it to a male doing the same job I'd start a fight. Equally in Wales the driver of a bus is always called "Drive" and when you alight said bus you always say "ta Drive". Everyone confused now? If not my next post will be in Welsh which is absolutely and totally not related to English which is related to German.

Cheers

At last a sensible contribution.
there are parts of Lancashire and Yorkshire where the very old in the community used to call each other 'Luv' regardless of which of the three genders they where adressing !

Take care Luv.
